My Ability to communicate has dwindled in the fog
I got a fence around our yard
To keep out the neighbors dog
I got a rusted out Impala with weeds growin out the trunk And nothin' ever gets done around here
Because I'm always drunk.
Daddy's eyes are goin blind
Daddy's eyes are goin blind
My wife up and left me and took our little girl
I could blame her or she could blame me
Or we could blame the whole damn world
I've got scizophrenic nightmares runnin through my mind
I remember when things were clear
And I could see just fine
Daddy's eyes are goin blind,
When they use to see just fine
But the neighbors dog keeps barkin, treein little squirrels
The U.S.A keeps marchin round with its flag unfurled
And I try and try to maintain a simple way of life
Daddy's eyes are goin blind
When you're all alone nothin makes any sense
I guess I'll get myself a hammer and nails
And build another fence
Whatever happend to the Mason-Dixon Line?
Well it seem to me that black and white
Both turn gray with time
Daddys eyes are goin blind
When they use to see just fine
