Seasick Steve - That's All Lyrics






Trapped like a rat
I was caught, that's a fact
I pace this cell
Four square foot of hell

I eat their food
Although it ain't no good
I mark the days
With a crayon I've saved

I wanna fly like a bird
Over these walls
Never to be heard of again
That is all

Now freedom for most
Is just a word like toast
But you take it away
You gon' learn to say

I wanna fly like a bird
Over these walls
Never to be heard of again
That is all

Here it come now

I wanna fly like a bird
Over these walls
Never to be heard of again
That's all

Now freedom for most
Is just a word like toast
But you take it away
You gon' learn to say

I wanna fly like a bird
Over these walls
Never to be heard of again
That is all

I wanna fly like a bird
Over these walls
Never to be heard of again
That is all

Seasick Steve That's All Comments
  1. N.... S....

    Odd question hope it's not to stupid , what kind of dancing is that ? Genuinely curious

    N.... S....

    This may answer your query. I took the clips from this https://youtu.be/vJB_HGdGfic

    N.... S....

    @The Itinerant ah awesome thank you ! When I first heard thats all by seasick he was on jooles Holland in England and had a Lancashire clogg dancer while he was playing but the style of dance looks so different and I knew nothing of clog dancing in the USA thank you !

    N.... S....

    @Nicholas Smith A good friend of mine is exec producer on the Jools Holland programme.He told me Steve's wife saw my video and suggested they get a clog dancer to go on tour with them ! If you look at my channel there is a video from Steve and my pal thanking me for the inspiration.

    N.... S....

    @The Itinerant that's amazing ! Jooles annual hootenanny is our new years tradition in my house all the family come around and we have a new years party watch jooles and set off fireworks I saw Steve's first appearance on it quite a few years ago now and it's where I discovered him and music was one of the few things me and my dad has in common one of Steve's albums was one of the gifts I have dad one Christmas and since my dad passed away both Steve and jooles are very special to me especially when I'm feeling down so I will definitely be checking your other stuff out and very pleased to speak to you

  47. J.... D....

    After making some stupid decisions as a youth I lost my freedom for 4 years ..and this song is exactly how u spend most of your time.. layed on your bed dreaming of getting out ..and trying to avoid fights over who's next in line for food ,pool and smokes

    J.... D....

    There's a saying I love... 'turn your wounds into wisdom.' We all make mistakes, some are small ones or like yours bigger and more difficult to endure. But you were fortunate because your mistake took 4 years to atone for. Many are not so lucky! Good luck in life!!

  77. I.... A....

    fucking awsome song

  78. D.... N....

    Americana at its finest, for every man the bright a lovely beacon of hope
    Or ancestral root are still to bare good fruit
    Like a walk on the clouds
    When it seems the sky has fell down we hold
    To our ancestors tree, time sometimes burns
    Our neighbors, our brothers and sisters did bleed
    For you, for me , and this Country tis a "V"
    Whitman's peoms
    Folks singing from heart, we remember
    We honor
    We remember them in the
    Back beat of every song we hear
    We share this thing together
    We Still, In Love with the notion
    We have, we can and to other
    For the bonds of family
    Friend
    Love
    When all else burns
    To the ground we still manage
    To stand, help one another
    And plant again the seeds of responsibility
    And under the wreckage
    Underneath the debris
    Still lyes the soil, forever fresh and holding
    Tomorrows fruits and vines from our labors
    I toils
    We soe
    We reap
    We share with all who can, and want
    To see that beacon
    Underneath the burned down vineyards be
    Still new life, and drink for all
    Who care for others tomorrows
    Shared weight of hard work
    We hold alls tomorrow in the highest of hopes
    Today as always we toil the earth
    Sow seeds of like and liberties

    Ever learning, sharing yesterdays learnings
    As we ourself still learn from each day

    For me I still pray we never stop sharing
    Never stop learning

    Or be it we under all have forgotten
    Who we were, who we are
    And what we can be

    "Grapes of Wrath, I pray never ours, or the next"
    Generations...We shall see!

    "daN"

    D.... N....

    Condensations of Gratitude well intended Dan. Each conscious act of sharing, patient humility and kindness will turn the weapons into relics, and those to come may never have to face the brutality of war. Have a Blissfull weekend and beyond :)

    D.... N....

    America at it's finest... slaughtering and stealing the Native America's land.

    10/10! :)

    D.... N....

    Why did I just read that as bacon of hope?

    D.... N....

    Jonathan Powell hey guess what that's the way the world always worked sorry if you can't handle the truth you intelligent people explore risk everything to find new lands for them and theirs but you band wagon dumb shits or if you just dont like whites we white people have also freed and liberated more races and religious groups than any other so people keep on having intelligent thoughts and think freely don't believe what people tell believe whats right long live this great country the USA
