Desperadoes Waiting for a Train
作詞:Guy Clark
And I played the Red River Valley And he'd sit in the kitchen and he'd cry Run his fingers through seventy years of livin' And wonder, 'Lord, has every well I've drilled gone dry?' We were friends, me and this old man
Like desperadoes waitin' for a train Like desperadoes waitin' for a train
Well he's a drifter and a driller of oil wells And an old school man of the world He taught me how to drive his car when he was too drunk to And he'd wink and give me money for the girls And our lives was like some old western movie
Like desperadoes waitin' for a train Like desperadoes waitin' for a train
From the time that I could walk he'd take me with him To a bar called the Green Frog Cafe There was old men with beer guts and dominoes Lying 'bout their lives while they played And I was just a kid, they all called me, 'Sidekick'

One day, I looked up and he was pushin' eighty And there was brown tobacco stains all down his chin Well to me he's one of the heroes of this country So why's he all dressed up like them old men Drinkin' beer and playin' Moon and Forty-two
Like a desperado waitin' for a train Like a desperado waitin' for a train
And the day 'fore he died I went to see him I was grown and he was almost gone So we just closed our eyes and dreamed us up a kitchen And sang one more verse to that old song Come on, Jack, that son of a bitch is comin'
We're like desperadoes waitin' for a train Like desperadoes waitin' for a train
Like desperadoes waitin' for a train Like desperadoes waitin' for a train
