Fallin' Ditch

Dialogue:
Don Van Vliet: "Now we won't have to worry about Rockette Morton with any of those girls."
Rockette Morton: "Rockette Morton takes off again into the wind."
DVV: "Whaddaya run on, Rockette Morton?"
DVV: "Say beans"
RM: "I run on beans . . . I run on laser beans."

When I get lonesome the wind begin t' moan
When I trip fallin' ditch
Somebody wanna' throw the dirt right down
When I feel like dyin' the sun come out
'n stole m' fear 'n gone
Who's afraid of the spirit with the bluesferbones
Who's afraid of the fallin' ditch
Fallin' ditch ain't gonna get my bones
How's that for the spirit
How's that for the things
Ain't my fault the thing's gone wrong
'n when I'm smilin' my face wrinkles up real warm
'n when um frownin' things just turn t' stone
Fallin' ditch ain't gonna get my bones
'n when I get lonesome the wind begin t' moan
Fallin' ditch ain't gonna get my bones
