song:Santa Fe Artist:shawn mullins Album: Beneath The Velvet Sun Year: 2000 She was sittin' in the corner of a cafe In the burnin' heart of downtown Santa Fe Pickin' on a Gibson and singin' "Baby, Can't You See" She was buzzin' like a battlefield tracer She was grindin' like the gears on a Pacer I said "Sister Bloody Mary, won't you do a number for me?" She said I'll sing you any song that you wannna hear Just pull up a barstool and buy me another beer Take me away, take me away from here Take me far away, Santa Fe Santa Fe He was livin' with some hippies in a school bus They had puddered here from Boulder, covered in dust He said I know a little lady livin' 30 miles up the road I got a feelin' that my ride ain't gonna take me If I don't see my little lady it will break me Another 24 hours here I think I just might explode I've been doing everything I know to try to stay free Workin' for the man just ain't no kind of plan for me So take me away, take me where I wanna be Take me far away, Santa Fe Santa Fe (lead break) Oh, oh, oh, I'll sing you any song that you wanna hear It'll sound a lot better if you have yourself another beer Take me away, take me away from here Take me far away, Santa Fe Santa Fe Santa Fe Take me away
