Ain't Got No Sole

from Outbreeding by David Thomas Broughton

lyrics

I went down to the swollen river,
I had no fear of drowning,
I peeped over the bridges barrier,
into swirling chocolate brown,
I went down the banks so slimy,
look how it does eddy,
I grabbed the nearest branch right by me
for myself to steady,
held my head in my two hands,
I felt I was now ready,
had a little clarity pang
I lost all my sense of dread,

I have no reason to return.

Submerged in water
up to my waist now
my mind revolves in my head,
lost my balance
my ankle I did twist,
my fingers frozen red.
I felt like one of those mental bastards,
I lost my shoe.
How I've fooled all my associates,
how I loved that shoe,

but it has no reason to return
