Lyrics

[Intro] I'd like to dedicate this song to Kris Kristofferson, and Johnny Cash, and Billy Swan, and funky Donny Fritts and [Chorus] Pissin' in the wind Bettin' on our losin' friends Makin' the same mistakes we swear we'll never make again Pissin' in the wind But it's blowin' on all our friends We're gonna sit and grin and tell our grandchildren [Verse 1] About the time I called this guy, it was four in the morning To teach me the words to the song I was humming Mmm-hmm-hmm, mmm-hmm-hmm He just laughed and he said that the old gray cat is sneakin' down the hall But all he wants to know is who in the hell is paying for this call [Chorus] Pissin' in the wind Bettin' on our losin' friends Makin' the same mistakes we swear we'll never make again We're pissin' in the wind But it's blowin' on all our friends We're gonna sit and grin and tell our grandchildren [Verse 2] How this Nunn called me up, it was eight in the mornin' Wondered to know how in the world am I doin' I said "uhh-huh-huh, mmm-hmm-hmm" He just laughed and he said "Get it together boy and fall on by the house "Some Gonzo buddies would like to play anything you're picking now" [Chorus] Pissin' in the wind Bettin' on our losin' friends Makin' the same mistakes we swear we'll never make again We're pissin' in the wind It's blowin' on all our friends We're gonna sit and grin and tell our grandchildren [Verse 3] How we worked and we suffered and struggled makin' our record 'til we got it right And now we're waiting on the check To come sneakin' down the hall Like that old time feelin' That we never should have ever put the record out at all [Chorus] Just pissin' in the wind Bettin' on our losin' friends Makin' the same mistakes we swear we'll never make again We're pissin' in the wind It's blowin' on all our friends We're gonna sit and grin and tell our grandchildren [Outro] That the answer my friend Is just pissin' in the wind The answer is pissin' in the sink
