John Prine - Rocky Mountain Time

Текст песни

The station was empty
The trains were all gone
I reached in my pocket
And I wanted for dawn
The clock played drums
And I hummed the sax
And the wind whistled down
The railroad tracks
Hey three for a quarter
One for a dime
Ill bet its tomorrow
By rocky mountain time
I walked in the restaurant
For something to do The waitress yelled at me And so did the food
And the water taste funny
When youre far from your home
But its only the thirsty
That hunger to roam
(repeat chorus)
Well build us a castle on main street
And pretend that were down on the farm
Hell, well hold out as long as we have to Then well twist off each others arm
Christ Im so mixed up and lonely
I cant even make friends with my brain
Im too young to be where Im going
But Im too old to go back again
(repeat first verse and chorus)
