<br />
 <br />
<br />
Well when I was a young boy<br />
<br />
I used to slip away<br />
<br />
Down to the ashgrove<br />
<br />
To hear the old blues men play<br />
<br />
There was Big Joe and Lightnin`<br />
<br />
And Reverend Gary too<br />
<br />
Well I`d sit and stare and dream<br />
<br />
Of doin` what they could do.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Well it`s been thirty years since the ashgrove burned down<br />
<br />
And I`m out on this highway travelin` town to town<br />
<br />
Tryin` to make a livin`	<br />
<br />
Tryin` to pay the rent<br />
<br />
Tryin` to figure out where my life went.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
I wanna go back to the ashgrove<br />
<br />
That`s where I come from<br />
<br />
I wanna go back to the ashgrove<br />
<br />
That`s where I belong.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Well you don`t have to go searchin`<br />
<br />
Pretend to put on airs<br />
<br />
‘Cause the blues are gonna find you someday, somewhere<br />
<br />
Now my mother`s gone<br />
<br />
Now my father`s gone<br />
<br />
And all the old blues men have all passed on<br />
<br />
And I`m out on this highway travelin` town to town <br />
<br />
Settin` up my gear and then I`m tearin` it down <br />
<br />
Turnin` up my guitar<br />
<br />
Standin` on the stage<br />
<br />
I`m just tryin` to raise the ghosts up out of their graves.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
I wanna go back to the ashgrove<br />
<br />
That`s where I come from <br />
<br />
Yeah I wanna go back to the ashgrove<br />
<br />
That`s where I belong.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Well I can`t say I been all sinner<br />
<br />
Can`t say I been all saint<br />
<br />
I`ve done some good deeds and I`ve made big mistakes<br />
<br />
I been in and out of love<br />
<br />
Said words I regret<br />
<br />
I been drunk, been sober<br />
<br />
Smoked too many cigarettes<br />
<br />
And I`m out on this highway travelin` town to town<br />
<br />
And the news on the radio just brings me down<br />
<br />
Intolerance and fear<br />
<br />
Ignorance and lies<br />
<br />
It`s the same old same old I heard a million times<br />
<br />
And I`m thinkin` of friends and lovers<br />
<br />
And how they come and go<br />
<br />
Like look-alike houses on the side of the road<br />
<br />
Full of everyday people tryin` to get ahead<br />
<br />
Tryin` to find a reason just to get out of bed<br />
<br />
‘Cause we all need somethin` just to get us through<br />
<br />
Well I`m gonna play the blues tonight man<br />
<br />
‘Cause that`s what I do.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
I`m goin` back to the Ashgrove<br />
<br />
That`s where I come from<br />
<br />
I`m goin` back to the Ashgrove<br />
<br />
That`s where I belong.<br><br><a href='http://www.lyricsbay.com' target='_blank'>LyricsBay</a> | <a href="http://www.lyricsbay.com/ashgrove_lyrics-dave_alvin.html" target='_blank'>ASHGROVE lyrics DAVE ALVIN</a></pre>

Dave Alvin

(Blue Horn Toad Music, BMI)

Well when I was a young boy

I used to slip away

Down to the ashgrove

To hear the old blues men play

There was Big Joe and Lightnin`

And Reverend Gary too

Well I`d sit and stare and dream

Of doin` what they could do.

Well it`s been thirty years since the ashgrove burned down

And I`m out on this highway travelin` town to town

Tryin` to make a livin`

Tryin` to pay the rent

Tryin` to figure out where my life went.

I wanna go back to the ashgrove

That`s where I come from

I wanna go back to the ashgrove

That`s where I belong.

Well you don`t have to go searchin`

Pretend to put on airs

‘Cause the blues are gonna find you someday, somewhere

Now my mother`s gone

Now my father`s gone

And all the old blues men have all passed on

And I`m out on this highway travelin` town to town

Settin` up my gear and then I`m tearin` it down

Turnin` up my guitar

Standin` on the stage

I`m just tryin` to raise the ghosts up out of their graves.

I wanna go back to the ashgrove

That`s where I come from

Yeah I wanna go back to the ashgrove

That`s where I belong.

Well I can`t say I been all sinner

Can`t say I been all saint

I`ve done some good deeds and I`ve made big mistakes

I been in and out of love

Said words I regret

I been drunk, been sober

Smoked too many cigarettes

And I`m out on this highway travelin` town to town

And the news on the radio just brings me down

Intolerance and fear

Ignorance and lies

It`s the same old same old I heard a million times

And I`m thinkin` of friends and lovers

And how they come and go

Like look-alike houses on the side of the road

Full of everyday people tryin` to get ahead

Tryin` to find a reason just to get out of bed

‘Cause we all need somethin` just to get us through

Well I`m gonna play the blues tonight man

‘Cause that`s what I do.

I`m goin` back to the Ashgrove

That`s where I come from

I`m goin` back to the Ashgrove

That`s where I belong.
