Widespread Panic - REBIRTHA lyrics

Rebirtha strolling 'cross the street

Juggling keys to a small red car

Butterflies and bombs fly close

Like she's some Disney movie star

Sipping hopes and lonlies

Since the big leagues left us dry

Birtha, Rebirtha sing a sad song

Soothe these troubled times

First time

It's not the first time

Last time

No, I know I seen your place before

Maybe in a past life

Or maybe it was just last night

I don't know

Birtha never sang too well

But her stereo shook glass

Leather gripped our bodies

As her toes curled around the gas

Shaking loose out of Kansas

First twenty minutes in black-and-white

Birtha, Rebirtha, talk to me, take to me

Ease these troubled times

Won't ever talk too much

She had those television eyes

My gaze never strayed too much

Too much past those eyes

She said, "I know a town where real life's a game

Baseball's all that's real

At night all the faces light up

As the players take the field"

First time

It's not the first time

Last time

No, I know I seen your place before

Maybe in a past time

Maybe it was just last night

Don't just know

Rebirtha strolling across the street

Juggling keys to a small red car

Butterflies and bums fly close

Like she's some Disney movie star

Sippin' hopes and lonlies

Since the big leagues left us dry

Birtha, Rebirtha, sweet-talk talk 'em

Soothe these troubled times

Birtha never ever talked too much

Had those television eyes

Said, "We act like what we watch

Like what we act out most the time"

"Gonna take you to a town

Where real life's a game

Baseball is really real

At night all the spirits lighten up

As the heroes take the hill"

First time

It's not the first time

No, I know I seen your place before

Maybe in a past time

Maybe it was just last night

I don't know
