Patty Griffin - Mad Mission Lyrics
We were drinking like the irishBut we were drinking scotchBartender turned on a movieEverybody turned to watchAnd every single eye was gleamingAs he reached the final sceneWell, at least mine didHeres lookin at you, kidIts a mad missionUnder difficult conditionsNot everybody makes itTo the loving cupIts a mad missionBut I got the ambitionMad, mad missionSign me upI think Ive seen the look before,yes,Its kind of non-commitalIt says come hither, baby, but then hes hard wood to whittleIt says it dont mean a thing, but still, somebody doesHed like you to join the club that likes to sayTheres no such thing as love andIts a mad missionUnder difficult conditionsNot everybody makes itTo the loving cupIts a mad missionBut I got the ambitionMad, mad missionSign me upSometimes you find yourselfFlying low at nightFlying blind and looking forAny sign of lightYoure cold and scared, and all aloneYoud do anything just to make it homeIts a mad missionUnder difficult conditionsNot everybody makes itTo the loving cupIts a mad missionBut I got the ambitionMad, mad missionSign me upSign me up
