Cover art for Layne lyrics by Black Label Society

Zakk should put down the beer adn the guitar for ten minutes and learn to read. Okay, so it's dedciated to Layne Staley, (Alice In Chains being an obviously huge influence on BLS). But "biddin' my time until I wave goodbye?" I thought it was justa typo, so I dug out the CD (not my favorite BLS album), and he actually sings "biddin'." You don't bid your time, you bide it, slob!
