Nothing Again Songtext
von Gov’t Mule

We all tried to warn you but you already knew
So you blame this on jealousy
You say the, the rumors are untrue
But you feel yourself slipping away

You awoke from a dream
Things were different than now
You were gonna be a superstar
Elvis was teaching you how

You met a man in a suit
Said sign on the line
But you′ll need a little something
To help you unwind

You got to ride like Hell
Your face into the wind
One day you're everything
Then you′re nothing again


We all know that the journey
It means more than where you wind up
But they don't know what it's like
To drink from your cup
Still they got something to say

You met a girl on the highway
She made you feel like a man
But somewhere along the way
Your poor heart just caved in

So you smoke a little that
And you drink a little this
And soon you can′t separate
The misery from the bliss

You got to ride like Hell
Your face into the wind
One day you′re everything
Then you're nothing again
Nothing again, nothing again

Anyone can be blinded
Caught up in the lust
We all must go back
Back to our own dust
Back to yesterday


One cold night in the sixties
In a small town serene
A young boy sits and stares
At a black and white screen

He′s caught up in the rhythm
The words and the sound
And it feels just like a ticket
Out of this town

You got to ride like Hell
Your face into the wind
One day you're everything
Then you′re nothing again

You got to ride like Hell
Your face into the wind
One day you're everything
Then you′re nothing again
Nothing again, nothing again, nothing again, nothing again

Nothing... nothing... nothing again...
