All these pills and powder could not make me stay | |
I'm on my merry way in the morning light | |
Cold New England winters have got me coughing | |
As the Lincoln turns down Memory Street | |
"Tell me Judge. what's the bounty | |
On that boy from Lawrence County? | |
He's a friend of mine | |
If I had a way to trap him | |
Would you swear to pay up CAptain? | |
He's a friend of mine" | |
The door swang slowly open | |
The committee room was dark | |
The bailiff marked the chairs in red | |
Recalled a boy in orange as he slowly passes | |
Awkward as a calf with its legs wobbling | |
"Be so kind, tell me warden | |
Who's in line to die this morning? | |
Could I see the show? | |
If he bore his teeth to scare us | |
Would we see our likeness sheriff | |
In the pearly glow?" | |
Roll on old silver river through the Iron Range | |
Past the sleeping trains that wait | |
Gold and amber peddles in your water wade | |
Like the hand of Jesse James in wait | |
Rain it beats the window, makes it hard to see | |
Who's on a drunken spree in the city lights | |
Silent are the dying, silent are the young | |
And it's silent where I'm from | |
"Tell me love of your husband | |
Will we see his headlights coming? | |
Will he know it's us? | |
When his tired eyes have lifted | |
Will he see your bed has shifted? | |
Is he bad at love?" | |
"I got the money that I owe you | |
Something else to show you | |
Could you meet me there? | |
Take the road out past the station | |
To the river basin | |
I'll be waiting there" | |
All these pills and powder | |
could not make me stay | |
I'm on my merry way in the morning light | |
All these dying matadors in dusty rings | |
have killed my will to sing | |
And I'm gone | |
Tell me Judge, what's the bounty | |
On that boy from Lawrence County? | |
He's a friend of mine | |
If I had a way to trap him | |
Would you swear to pay up Captain? | |
He's a friend of mine |
