๐ Lyrics
I'm gonna walk across the desert
'Til I'm in my right mind
I won't even think about
What I left behind
Nothing back there anyway
I can call my own
Go back home
Leave me alone
It's a long road
It's a long and narrow way
If I can't work up to you
You'll surely have to work down to me someday
Ever since the British
Burned the White House down
There's a bleeding wound
In the heart of town
I saw you drinking
From an empty cup
I saw you buried
And I saw you dug up
It's a long road
It's a long and narrow way
If I can't work up to you
You'll surely have to work down to me someday
Look down angel
From the skies
Help my
Weary soul to rise
I kissed her cheek
I dragged your plough
You broke my heart
I was your friend 'til now
It's a long road
It's a long and narrow way
If I can't work up to you
You'll surely have to work down to me someday
In the courtyard
Of the golden sun
You stand and fight
Or you break and run
You went and lost
Your lovely head
For a drink of wine
And a crust of bread
It's a long road
It's a long and narrow way
If I can't work up to you
You'll surely have to work down to me someday
We looted and we plundered
On distant shores
Why is my share
Not equal to yours
Your father left you
Your mother too
Even death has
Washed its hands of you
It's a long road
It's a long and narrow way
If I can't work up to you
You'll surely have to work down to me someday
This is hard country
To stay alive in
Blades are everywhere
And they're breaking my skin
I'm armed to the hilt
And I'm struggling hard
You won't get out
Of here unscarred
It's a long road
It's a long and narrow way
If I can't work up to you
You'll surely have to work down to me someday
You got too many lovers
Waiting at the wall
About a thousand tons
I couldn't count them all
Yesterday
I could've thrown them all in the sea
Today
Even one
May be too much for me
It's a long road
It's a long and narrow way
If I can't work up to you
You'll surely have to work down to me someday
Can't walk them, baby
You could do no wrong
Put your arms around me
Where they belong
I won't take you under
For the ghost to ride
Lay my hands all over ya
Tie you to my side
It's a long road
It's a long and narrow way
If I can't work up to you
You'll surely have to work down to me someday
I've got a heavy stacked woman
With a smile on her face
And she has crowned
My soul with grace
I'm still hurting from an arrow
That pierced my chest
I'm gonna have to take my head
And bury it between your breasts
It's a long road
It's a long and narrow way
If I can't work up to you
You'll surely have to work down to me someday
Been dark all night
But now it's dawn
The moving finger
Is moving on
You can guard me
While I sleep
Piss away
The tears I weep
It's a long road
It's a long and narrow way
If I can't work up to you
You'll surely have to work down to me someday
I love women
And she loves men
We've been to the west
And we're going back again
I heard a voice
At the dusk of day
Saying "Be gentle brother
Be gentle and pray"
It's a long road
It's a long and narrow way
If I can't work up to you
You'll surely have to work down to me someday
'Til I'm in my right mind
I won't even think about
What I left behind
Nothing back there anyway
I can call my own
Go back home
Leave me alone
It's a long road
It's a long and narrow way
