gotta love the random profound lyrics in the rotation..

Well I was drinkin’ last night with a biker
And I showed him a picture of you
I said, pal get to know her, you’ll like her
Seemed like the least I could do.
Cause when he’s chargin’ his chopper
Up and down your carpeted halls
You will think I am dressed up quite proper
Never mind how I stumble and fall.

You imagine me sipping champagne from your boot
For taste of your elegant pride
I may be going to hell in a bucket, babe
But at least I’m enjoying the ride, at least I’ll enjoy the ride.

Cause you’re a sweet little softcore pretender
Somehow, babe, it got as hot as it gets
With her black leather and gold spike suspenders
And your chain, your black whip and pets.

Well we know you’re the reincarnation
Of the infamous catherine the great
And we know how you love the ovation
And the scene that it seems to create.

You imagine me sipping champagne from your boot
For taste of your elegant pride
I may be going to hell in a bucket, babe
But at least I’m enjoying the ride, at least I’ll enjoy the ride.

You analyze me, tend to despise me
You laugh when I stumble and fall
There may come a say when I’ll dance on your grave
Unable to dance I’ll still crawl across it
Unable to dance I’ll still crawl
Unable to dance I’ll still crawl
Unable to dance I’ll crawl.

You must really consider the circus
It just might be your kind of zoo
I can’t think of a place that’s more perfect
For a person as perfect as you.

And it’s not like I’m leaving you lonely
Cause I wouldn’t know where to begin
Well I know you wake up here only
When the snakes come marching in.

You imagine me sipping champagne from your boot
For taste of your elegant pride
I may be going to hell in a bucket, babe
But at least I’m enjoying the ride, at least I’ll enjoy the ride.
Ride, ride, ride
Ride, ride, ride
Ride, ride, ride
At least I’ll enjoy the ride.
At least I’ll enjoy the ride.
At least I’ll enjoy the ride.

 

i love HELL IN A BUCKET!

 

During my time of seeing the Grateful Dead live - spring 90 on, Hell in a Bucket was consistently the hottest first set opener leading to a great show - both in what I saw live and I've heard on tape - never heard a poor performance of this song from the boys and it always kicked things off in high energy - loved it - miss it

 

i have a recording of 1983-05-15, second hell in a bucket performance ever. it's a damn good show too.

 

That's damn cool....I'll check that show out.

 

Check out Charolette the last Dead tour they did HIB in the 2nd set and just blew the place apart. The GRATEFUL DEAD played that night - they stumbled like days of old and Soared like a Phoenix- Its not what they play its how it plays them.
