Floyd Walpole Posted July 16, 2006 Share Posted July 16, 2006 Can some one post the alternative lyrics to HMD? I think it goes something like"...and she lifted up her shirt"... I cannot believe, after 33 wilco shows, that I still have not heard this version. Thanks! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
tapmyglass Posted July 16, 2006 Share Posted July 16, 2006 I believe that the lyrics to the alternative verse are:"she lifted up her shirt at the battle of the bandshe twirled his sticks she helped him to the vanshe fell in love with the drummer..."I like that verse alot Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Mr. Heartbreak Posted July 17, 2006 Share Posted July 17, 2006 Most of the versions I've heard with that go"She lifted up her shirtAt the battle of the bandsHe twirled his sticksShe helped him to his van..." Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Groo Posted July 17, 2006 Share Posted July 17, 2006 Most of the versions I've heard with that go"She lifted up her shirtAt the battle of the bandsHe twirled his sticksand She helped him to his van..." Closest one yet, the only that I can add to it is bolded. Although, that's purely from memory. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MrMilk Posted July 17, 2006 Share Posted July 17, 2006 Most of the versions I've heard with that go"She lifted up her shirtAt the battle of the bandsHe twirled his sticksShe helped him to his van..." I thought it was "She hopped into his van" ... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
morelikethemoon Posted July 17, 2006 Share Posted July 17, 2006 does anyone just have an mp3 of it Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jhc Posted July 17, 2006 Share Posted July 17, 2006 (edited) I thought it was "She hopped into his van" ... I'm pretty sure it's not that It's very possible that Jeff may not do this exactly the same every time, but I've never heard a version different than ther one Mr. Heartbreak posted.

Gobias Industries Posted July 17, 2006 Share Posted July 17, 2006 Heartbreak is the most correct. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Tweedy's Gurl Posted July 17, 2006 Share Posted July 17, 2006 yeah, mr. h has it. hee...i love that verse. last time i saw them jeff looked at glenn on the 'he twirled his stick' line and glenn shook his head...i guess glenn doesn't do heavy metal theatrics. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Edie Posted July 17, 2006 Share Posted July 17, 2006 I have lived this verse 'Course it helps that I am married to a drummer. And it usually happens in a slightly different order Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Glenn would give them a twirl when Tweedy wasn't looking. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
