about

Written and performed by Isaac Tabor.

lyrics

I used to dive
Headfirst into the sea
Swam with the fishes
Of every color and breed

I studied their scales
Watched them glisten and glow
Now the sea's have parted
Left me here on my own

These wild oats of mine
They have hit a drought
Aint had no rain (had no rain)
Sun's a beatin down

I'll put my boots
Back on the shelf
Come next spring
I'll try em on again

There's but one girl I loved
She kept me tame for years
Now that she's gone
Im left with just my fears

Well a flower needs water
To open and bloom
If this drought holds up
Lord, you know Im doomed

These wild oats of mine
They have hit a drought
Aint had no rain (had no rain)
Sun's a beatin down

I'll put my boots
Back on the shelf
Come next spring
I'll try em on again

Ive given the crew
The day to go rest
Ive put my tools
Back in the shed

There's cracks in the land
Vultures settling in
Just a few more days
And they'll be pickin at my skin

These wild oats of mine
They have hit a drought
Aint had no rain (had no rain)
Sun's a beatin down

I'll put my boots
Back on the shelf
Come next spring
I'll try em on again

Come next spring
I'll try em on again
