"....horsetails is actually going to be on the forthcoming record, but it sounds nothing like this version here - this was the very first time I ever played it with Tom... in the first verse there is a sharp turn that throws one off one's horse. Tom managed to grab the horse by it's tail and climb back on and continue riding. It makes for an exciting minute and a half.... On the forthcoming record we know whats going on a little more and it's played with quite a different groove, there's piano, and sexy bass.... that one makes you want to shake your booty, whereas this version makes you want to take cover... I love it."
lyrics
horsetails in the ditch
horsetails in the ditch
horsetails in the ditch
sonofabitch I burnt the food
and made a frikkin mess of the pan!
no problem man, nature provides-
look at these here plants you can handle
like a scouring pad, just grab a handful...
horsetails in the ditch
horsetails I can pick
horsetails I can stick
in a pot of boiling water
make a tea for my daughter
I heard they're good for your skin too,
like you could make a brew and bathe in it
oooo, I 'm takin a bath with ma nature
ma nature bathin with me...
