Conquering Fools (live) Lyrics

Conquering Fools (live)

set out on the voyage of the conquering fools

looking for the gold and the modern day jewels

it come to pass what was stuck in my head

if i didn't quit on looking then i'm probably dead



i hit the road and i rolled up north

looking for the origin, the place of my birth

i didn't notice when i ran a red sign

hoping that everything would really be fine

uh ha ha



people come and people go

but they never know what is going on

so they gotta try to be what they want to be

what the hell is happening to me



i hit the road and i rolled up north

looking for the origin, the place of my birth

i didn't notice when i ran a red sign

hoping that everything would really be fine

i set out about an hour ago

looking for my gold, and im sailing oh

then i went down looking for that big

that big, baby, big brass show

so i, i went and then he started to go

walking down the same old, same old road

thinking to myself, this quite a struggle

what am i gotta do tomorrow

im gonna find my gold

and conquer me some fools

yeeaaaaaaahhh



long long time ago 

i found myself looking for fools

and what i did not let myself know

was that these fools were inside my mind

id love to do right all the time 

but i found there are times

when i love to do so wrong

and i know, that the fools 

are at the bottom of it all



when no substance can control you

you done conquered that fool

when that alcohol can not own you

you done conquered that fool

and when no one person runs you

you must conquer that fool

and when you learn in them books everything ya need to know

well you can conquer them fools

you can conquer them fools that ya like

yall dont have to go
