Well the first days are the hardest days
Don’t you worry any more
Cause when life looks like easy street
There is danger at the door
Think this through with me, let me know your mind
Oh oh all I want to know is are you kind

It’s a buck dancer’s choice my friend
You better take my advice
You know all the rules by now
And the fire from the ice
Will you come with me, won’t you come with me
Oh oh all I want to know, will you come with me

God damn I declare have you seen the like
Their walls are built with cannon balls
Their motto is don’t tread on me
Come hear Uncle John’s band playing to the tide
Come on along or go alone,
He’s come to take his children home

It’s the same story the crow told me
It’s the only one he knows
Like the morning sun you come and like the wind you go
Ain’t no time to hate, barely time to wait
Oh oh all I want to know where does the time go

I live in a silver mine and I call it Beggar’s Tomb
I’ve got me a violin and I beg you call the tune
Any body’s choice, I can hear your voice
Oh oh all I want to know how does the song go

Come hear Uncle John’s band by the river side
Got some things to talk about
Here beside the rising tide
Come hear Uncle John’s band playing to the tide
Come on along or go alone
He’s come to take his children home
