lyrics

Committed to Parkview by Andrea & Mud
Written by Johnny Cash

There's a man across the hall who sits staring at the floor
He thinks he's Hank Williams; hear him singing through the door
There's a girl in 203, who stops by to visit me
And she talks about her songs and the star that she should be
There are lots of special people staying in or passing through
And for one thing or another committed to Parkview

There's a girl in 307, coming down on Thorazine
And a superstar's ex-drummer trying to kick Benzedrine
There's a real fine Country singer who has tried and tried and tried
They just brought him in this morning, an attempted suicide
There are those that never made it those that did but now are through
Some came of their own good choosing: some committed to Parkview

There's a girl who cries above me loud enough to wake the dead
They don't know what she has taken that has scrambled up her head
There's a boy just down below me who's the son of some well-known
He was brought in by his mother
'Cause his daddy's always gone
There's a bum from down on Broadway and then a few quite well-to-do's
Who have withdrawn from the rat race and committed to Parkview

They wake me about 6:30, just before the morning meal
While they're taking blood pressure they ask me how I feel
And I always say: "Fantastic! There ain't nothing wrong with me"
Then they give me my injection and I go right back to sleep
And my days are kind of foggy and my nights are dreamy too
But they're taking good care of me committed to Parkview
But they're taking good care of me committed to Parkview

Andrea & Mud Atlanta, Georgia

Ever wonder what it would have been like if Johnny and June were backed by the Cramps? If Conway and Loretta toured with the Ventures? If Link Wray and Amy Winehouse fell in love, started a band and everything they put out sounded like it was for a new Tarantino movie? That's a good start to describing ATL band Andrea & Mud but you need to listen to their music to understand. NEW ALBUM OUT NOW. ... more
