Never Satisfied

Lyrics: Jackie Greene
Music: Jackie Greene

A Jackie Greene song played with Phil Lesh at Philharmonia in 2011

Don�t just stand there in the doorway
'Cause I hate to see you cry
And don�t try to ignore me
Just smile and wave your hand goodbye

To you I�ll send a dozen roses
From every town that I've been in
And as long as leaves ain�t falling
You�ll know the shape that I've been in

On the grey side of the mountain
You can hear my train roll by
Baby I can be forgiven
But I ain't never satisfied

Chase the rain out from your heart dear
'Cause I know you will survive
If I�m not living by the edge dear
Then I might not be alive

And in the winter of December
Turn your good side on the chill
And in the winter please remember
I loved you then and I love you still

Out my window leaves are falling
And my train is passing by
Baby I can be forgiven
But I ain't never satisfied
