TEXAS HIPPIE COALITION
"Tell It From The Ground"
(Richard Anderson / Nevada Romo)

It's hard for me to swallow all these tears you've been cryin'
'Cause as you can see there's no one dead or dyin'
Though I'm not insinuating that you are lyin'
It's just all this rhetoric I'm just not buyin'

By the look on your face
You've got something to say
Okay
Just to clarify
Are you, are you talkin' to me?
Here's to me

'Cause I don't take no bullshit
I ain't one to fuck with
If you go to tellin'
Best you tell it from the ground
I don't take no bullshit
I ain't one to fuck with
If you go to tellin'
Best you tell it from the ground

By the look on your face
You've nothing to say
Okay

Now I cannot see myself drowning in your sorrow
You want to dwell on yesterday while I look to tomorrow
The language that you speak has become so hard to follow
Your statements have no weight and your words are hollow

By the look on your face
You've got something to say
Okay
Just to clarify
Are you, are you talkin' to me?
Here's to me

'Cause I don't take no bullshit
I ain't one to fuck with
If you go to tellin'
Best you tell it from the ground
I don't take no bullshit
I ain't one to fuck with
If you go to tellin'
Best you tell it from the ground

By the look on your face
You've got something to say
Place your hand on the Bible
Be sure to be mindful
Choose your words careful
Just try to be cool
I won't be berated
And as I have stated
Your views are faded
And you're a little jaded

By the look on your face
You've got something to say
Okay
Just to clarify
Are you, are you talkin' to me?
Here's to me

'Cause I don't take no bullshit
I ain't one to fuck with
If you go to tellin'
Best you tell it from the ground

I don't take no bullshit
I ain't one to fuck with
If you go to tellin'
Best you tell it from the ground

By the look on your face
You've nothing to say
Okay
By the blood on your face
You've nothing to say
Hooray
