lyrics

Get Your Hands Dirty

Life is beautiful
I know it’s true
And it’s sad sometimes but what can you do

Like a house of cards
It’ll fall apart
And it ends sometimes before it starts

Get your hands dirty
Get your hands dirty, baby
Come on and get your hands dirty
That’s what I say

Life is magical
From time to time
But even Easy Street’s got an uphill climb

And a slippery slope
When you’re sliding down
No matter who you are
You will hit the ground

And get your hands dirty
Get your hands dirty, baby
Come on and get your hands dirty
That’s what I say

You can’t always know the way to go the will of this old world
You can’t always find the way back home when it's dark at night and the rain comes pouring down

Life is radiant
When it dawns on you
But it’s hard to see after what you been through

The most precious thing
That you hold inside
Can be torn from your arms
Make you want to die

Get your hands dirty…

Life is beautiful
I know it’s true
And it’s sad sometimes but what can you do

When the times are hard and the times are tough and the wheels are low and the road is rough and there’s no one gets you down inside and all you know is where to hide and where to sink into the ground and hope that you are never found and then there you are you’re way down down maybe 4 or 5 feet neath ground and no one knows to dig you out cause you don't scream and you can’t shout
and you think that you will never get out and this might be your final bout but suddenly you hear the sound or smell the smell or taste the ground and look around and fall in love but now you gotta rise above and there’s just one way for you to fly and it’s not the tears left in your eyes…

Get your hands dirty…

Exit Reunion New York, New York

In October, 2011, soon after a rousing, 20-year reunion show at Bobby Q's in Westport, CT, members of the erstwhile jam band, Left Exit, got together in a studio made of reclaimed bowling lanes in Brooklyn, NY to begin recording what would, a year later, become RECREATION, a 2-disc, 14-song album by a band of one time road warriors with some unfinished business. Thus was born Exit Reunion. ... more
