Playing In The Band Part 1 Live at Tower Theatre Philadelphia PA June 21 1976 by The Grateful Dead Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Some folks look for reasons
Others look for rights
Some folks up in treetops
Just looking for their kites
But I can tell your future
Oh, look what's in your hand
But I can't stop for nothing
I'm just playing in the band
[Chorus]
Playing
Playing in the band
Daybreak
Daybreak on the land
[Verse 2]
Some folks look for answers
Others look for fights
Some folks up in treetops
Just looking for their kites
Well, I can tell your future
Oh, look what's in your hand
But I can't stop for nothing
I'm just playing in the band
[Chorus]
Playing
Playing in the band
Daybreak
Daybreak on the land
[Instrumental break]
[Verse 3]
Standing on a tower
World at my command
You just keep a turning
While I'm playing in the band
And if a man among you
Got no sin upon his hand
Let him cast a stone at me
For playing in the band
[Chorus]
Playing
Playing in the band
Daybreak
Daybreak on the land
[Instrumental]
Some folks look for reasons
Others look for rights
Some folks up in treetops
Just looking for their kites
But I can tell your future
Oh, look what's in your hand
But I can't stop for nothing
I'm just playing in the band
[Chorus]
Playing
Playing in the band
Daybreak
Daybreak on the land
[Verse 2]
Some folks look for answers
Others look for fights
Some folks up in treetops
Just looking for their kites
Well, I can tell your future
Oh, look what's in your hand
But I can't stop for nothing
I'm just playing in the band
[Chorus]
Playing
Playing in the band
Daybreak
Daybreak on the land
[Instrumental break]
[Verse 3]
Standing on a tower
World at my command
You just keep a turning
While I'm playing in the band
And if a man among you
Got no sin upon his hand
Let him cast a stone at me
For playing in the band
[Chorus]
Playing
Playing in the band
Daybreak
Daybreak on the land
[Instrumental]
