The Poet |
And as I get long gone |
Out where the wind blows |
The desert sky, she flies by for miles |
And as I keep walkin' |
People keep a-talkin' |
About things they’ve never seen or done |
Homeless sleep in the park |
Sweet hearts kiss in the dark |
I myself just move on through town |
Moon keeps on shinin' |
And the rich keep on dinin' |
And, oh, how I love the highway sun |
And out to the back |
The poet writes his songs in blood |
Where the coyotes are callin' |
Stars keep on fallin' |
Your mother, she won’t be around |
A feather blows down the road |
And the wind is cold, your wings are broke |
And your heart is livin' on the run |
Lonely and wasted |
Her eyes replaced it |
And I don’t think I’ll make another mile |
Town to town I run |
My horse ain’t too drunk |
The wind is singin' to the sun |
And out to the back |
The poet writes his songs in blood |
But the jukebox is barkin' |
I’m just gettin' started |
I’ve yet to see the light of day |
Senoritas lose it |
To the Mariachi music |
'Cause New York is too far away |
And the band keeps on playin' |
With beer bottles breakin' |
And the barmaid, I heard she pulled the gun |
Poet takes a pistol |
Points it at this sister |
Says, «Honey, your day is done» |
And out to the back |
The poet writes his song in blood |
Out to the back |
The poet writes his song in blood |
