Drunken Soldier Alternate Lyric

I was just listening to drunken soldier on Dave Matthews band radio on Sirius XM. The version that they played was different than the one that is on the album. They were essentially the same however Dave says "don't let any fool" instead of "don't waste time" in several places. Has anyone else heard this?

    Yes! I heard this a few weeks ago and was going to post but was too lazy. It sounds like the music is recorded alittle diffrent too. I noticed something was diffrent even before Dave started singing.

    Where did you hear it? Not that it is better or worse for that matter but I would like to hear it again.

    there was another 'take' of Drunken, the outro was slightly different too (less repeating of "that's not a star...")

    I think I might actually like this version better. The outro is a little different.

    I like don't let any fool better for sure. Reminds me of a younger Dave as a songwriter, jamming what may seem like too many words into a melody, but that in turn making it uniquely Dave Matthews. And of course the last chorus has the line that is used throughout the whole song on the album tune we know, so I also enjoy the variety a little more.


    That being said, doesn't change my opinion on the song which is: musically fantastic, melodically mediocre. Overall a solid tune though.

    I really really like the 2nd chorus where Dave kind of harmonies "fool" into this pretty little thing....


    "Dont let any foooooools make ya somethin' you're not..."



    Also I've always loved the "Once 'round, just once.."



    Damn, this has kind of opened up a new feeling for DS for me.

    Not always, just this time. The alternate take of Hello Again is the worst thing ever.
