Saddle up that old grey mare for me |
|
I wanna ride until these eyes of mine can't see |
|
I never really feel like looking very much anymore |
|
And nothing really matters till it's closer than the house next door... |
|
People talk a lot, but they can never find the heart and the soul |
|
To put a lot of time into more than just a search for gold |
|
The river's flowing dirty and it's moving down to |
|
Pass Christian |
|
There used to be a time when it's water was a healing hand... |
|
CHORUS Born too late and everything you know is gone, gone |
|
Born too late and everything you know is wrong |
|
I've got a wife in |
|
Cleveland and she hates my guts |
|
And everything about her's a reflection of what drove me nuts |
|
I stopped to buy a beer inside the trading post and lost my keys that somber wooden indian by the door began to laugh at me... |
|
CHORUS My silver |
|
Catalina's busy rusting in the cool night air he's only got a few more miles beneath his hood out there |
|
I stood a while beside him and |
|
I thought about his thirst for oil |
|
I thought about his greed for speed and how we've all got spoiled |
|
