Mad Mission Lyrics by Patty Griffin

Mad Mission Lyrics

    We were drinking like the irish
    But we were drinking scotch
    Bartender turned on a movie
    Everybody turned to watch
    And every single eye was gleaming
    As he reached the final scene
    Well, at least mine did
    Here's lookin' at you, kid

    It's a mad mission
    Under difficult conditions
    Not everybody makes it
    To the loving cup
    It's a mad mission
    But i got the ambition
    Mad, mad mission
    Sign me up

    I think i've seen the look before,yes,
    It's kind of non-commital
    It says come hither, baby, but then he's hard wood to whittle
    It says it don't mean a thing, but still, somebody does
    He'd like you to join the club that likes to say
    There's no such thing as love and

    It's a mad mission
    Under difficult conditions
    Not everybody makes it
    To the loving cup
    It's a mad mission
    But i got the ambition
    Mad, mad mission
    Sign me up

    Sometimes you find yourself
    Flying low at night
    Flying blind and looking for
    Any sign of light
    You're cold and scared, and all alone
    You'd do anything just to make it home

    It's a mad mission
    Under difficult conditions
    Not everybody makes it
    To the loving cup
    It's a mad mission
    But i got the ambition
    Mad, mad mission
    Sign me up

    Sign me up
