One Paper Kid (with Willie Nelson) |
Cowboys and Indians and trees he could climb |
Tomorrow came too fast but he didn’t mind |
Ah the distance was short so light it again |
It don’t take no time to get where I am |
But one paper kid wasn’t really so mean |
Just a little bit scared and a little bit green |
And he’d heard of a place it was legal to dream |
So he sat with his coffee in a blue Texas wind |
And he wrote on a rock the one paper kid is rolling again |
Ah the driver was drunk or he just didn’t see |
The future was there it’ll happen to me |
And all the time that he wasted was his once again |
Ah it never gets long to get where you’ve been |
The broken hearts scattered all over the past |
Old glad memories trying to last |
Whiskey and women and growing up fast |
Fussing and loving and itching like grass |
Hell that one paper kid wasn’t really so mean |
Just a little bit weird cause times were so lean |
Now he’s gone to a place where it’s legal to dream |
No Camels no coffee no cold morning winds |
It was wrote on a rock the one paper kid he’s rolling again |
Ah the one paper kid he’s rolling again |
