[00:02.00] Jakob Dylan - Valley OF The Low Sun
[00:06.00]
[00:08.32] We'd feel much better if we sunk this treasure
[00:13.01] And laid our armor down
[00:16.55] These precious metals and these captain's letters
[00:20.57] They are no use to us now
[00:24.47] In the day we struggle with fatigue much greater
[00:28.62] Than any offer was
[00:32.56] We bow down and worship these bandits and cowboys
[00:36.91] Unable to hold their own guns
[00:41.15] I know that soldiers are not paid to think
[00:44.86] But something is making us sick
[00:50.64] Onward and steady able and young
[03:13.50][01:46.35][00:54.76] In the valley of the low low sun
[01:00.50] In the shade we wander along a highway's shoulder
[01:04.77] Into the back of beyond
[01:08.40] Burning the daylight into a pastime
[01:12.42] That's too wise to come more than once
[01:16.60] It's boom boom thunder ain't no sleep coming
[01:20.44] Out mining a slippery world
[01:24.19] Of snow covered beaches and junkyards of diesel
[01:28.46] And bombers named after girls
[01:32.35] On bridges of black ice not built for the rush
[01:36.46] There's a new kind of beast getting up
[01:41.91] That's stranger than fiction speaking in tongue
[01:52.13] Hold on for the slow turning
[01:56.66] Smoke if you've got 'em boys
[01:59.08] This is bottom hiding out
[02:01.64] Down under the stairs
[02:04.30] Tomorrow has come like it's drunk on the blood
[02:08.54] Of the men who have dared to be there
[02:27.77] The earth's still climbing as it keeps on grinding
[02:32.21] It's way up around the sun
[02:36.15] As cool water crashes down to the masses
[02:39.82] bootlegged and bottled like rum
[02:43.90] My dreams are humble lean as arrows
[02:47.93] Streetwise ready and fair
[02:51.81] As we bum rush the ages tied to the rails
[02:55.77] On high seas not fit to be sailed
[02:59.57] Whatever we've taken does feel like heaven
[03:03.67] But baby we just look like hell
[03:17.40][03:09.28] Act like you mean it where paradise was
[03:21.45] In the valley of low low sun
