[00:02.95] Out in the alleys of Austin
[00:16.38] There's a song on the side of the wall
[00:25.30] The bricks and the bottles and the mongrels
[00:35.32] Are trying to make sense out of it all
[00:45.01] And the moon looks all too familiar
[00:53.43] The kids say "There ain't no man in there";
[01:03.83] While the laid back baboon
[01:09.80] By the light of the Texas moon
[01:14.88] Is combing his auburn hair
[01:20.93] He's just combing his auburn hair
[01:30.72] Now out in the alleys of Heaven
[01:40.45] There's a funky feeling angel strumming chords
[01:49.83] While the preachers sit and get stoned in their Buicks
[01:59.47] Jesus Christ rolls by in his Ford
[02:07.76] And the clouds are like the feathers of sparrows
[02:17.70] A thousand different colors of grey
[02:27.18] It's the hustle of the paradise bar room
[02:36.56] And the glory of hanging out in space
[02:45.75] It's the glory of hanging out in space
[02:55.10] In the alleys of Austin and Heaven
[03:50.28] The song they're playing is the same
[03:59.42] The jam sessions sound like the gutters
[04:08.97] As the muddy licks and sticks roll down the drain
[04:20.09] And the drainpipe she rolls out to the river
[04:28.55] And the Pedernales flows out to the sea
[04:37.95] And the sea waters rise up to Heaven
[04:46.39] And rain down on the alleys of Austin
[04:57.38] And you
[05:00.44] And me
[05:03.86]
