Navajo Rug |
Well it’s two eggs up on whiskey toast |
And home fries on the side |
Wash it down with the road house coffee |
Burns up your insides |
Just a Canyon-Colorado Diner |
And a waitress I did love |
I sat in the back neath an old stuffed bear |
And a worn out Navajo rug |
Well Old Jack, the boss, he left at six |
And it’s Katie bar the door |
She’d pull down that Navajo rug |
And she’d spread it across the floor |
Hey, I saw lightning cross the sacred mountains |
Saw woven turtle doves |
I was sittin' next to Katie |
On that old Navajo rug |
Aye, Aye, Aye, Katie |
Shades of red and blue |
Aye, Aye, Aye, Katie |
Whatever became of the Navajo rug and you |
Katie, shades of red and blue |
Well I saw old Jack about a year ago |
He said the place burned to the ground |
And all I saved was this old bear tooth |
And Katie, she’s left town |
Oh, but Katie, she got her souvenir too |
Jack spat a tobacco plug |
Well you should have seen her a-coming through the smoke |
Draggin' that Navajo rug |
Aye, Aye, Aye, Katie |
Shades of red and blue |
Aye, Aye, Aye, Katie |
Whatever became of the Navajo rug and you |
Katie, shades of red and blue |
So every time I cross the sacred mountains |
And lightning breaks above |
It always takes me back in time |
To my long lost Katie love |
But everything keeps on a-moving |
Yeah, everybody’s on the go |
You don’t find things that last anymore |
Like an old woven Navajo |
Aye, Aye, Aye, Katie |
Shades of red and blue |
Aye, Aye, Aye, Katie |
Whatever became of the Navajo rug and you |
Katie, shades of red and blue |
