Danny Carlisle
From Vic's 1990 album "Little"
Verse 1:
C F C C
He wanted a tree fort more than anything
Am G F F
Yes he wanted to build and defend one on his own
C F C Am
But the neighbor boys' BB seige was overwhelming
G F C C
So he a-won't be building his dream tree fort anymore
Verse 2:
C F C C
He received a five-speed Schwinn for Christmas
Am G F F
So he built a ramp out of the plywood and a stump
C F C Am
And at nights he dreamed Evel Knievel
G F C C
And a canyon to jump in a-his backyard
Chorus 1:
F G Am G
Danny um-Carlisle, he don't give a shit about the Contras
F G Am G F
Danny um-Carlisle, he's barely grown and he's used up most of his options
F F
And still he would rather dream, dream, dream
F C C
And still he would rather dream than fuck
Verse 3:
C F C C
Once he used a pocket knife to kill a garden snake
Am G F F
Yes he chopped that evil serpent into fours
C F C Am
And when he raised his eyes to heaven as a soldier
G F C C
He wiped the blood of bad snake on his shirt
Chorus 2:
F G Am G
Yeah Danny um-Carlisle, he don't give a shit about the Contras
F G Am G F
Yeah Danny um-Carlisle, he's barely grown and he's used up most of his options
F F
And still he would rather dream, dream, dream
F C C
And still he would rather dream than fuck
