Desperados Waiting For A Train (Live) - Guy Clark[00:00:00]
Written by:Guy Clark/Neil Wilburn[00:00:04]
I played the red river valley[00:00:07]
He'd sit in the kitchen and cry[00:00:13]
Run his fingers through seventy years of livin'[00:00:19]
And wonder lord has every well I've drilled gone dry[00:00:27]
We were friends me and this old man[00:00:34]
We's like desperados waitin' for a train[00:00:39]
Like desperados waitin' for a train[00:00:46]
He's a drifter and a driller of oil wells[00:00:56]
And old school man of the world[00:01:03]
He taught me how to drive his car[00:01:09]
When he's too drunk to[00:01:13]
And he'd wink and give me money for the girls[00:01:16]
And our lives was like some old western movie[00:01:23]
Like desperados waitin' for a train[00:01:29]
Like desperados waitin' for a train[00:01:35]
From the time that I could walk he'd take me with him[00:01:46]
To a bar called the Green Frog Cafe[00:01:52]
There was old men with beer guts and dominos[00:01:59]
Lying 'bout their lives while they played[00:02:07]
I was just a kid they all called me sidekick[00:02:13]
Like desperados waitin' for a train[00:02:18]
Like desperados waitin' for a train[00:02:25]
One day I looked up and he's pushin' eighty[00:02:36]
He's got brown tobacco stains all down his chin[00:02:42]
Well to me he was a hero of this country[00:02:49]
So why's he all dressed up like them old men[00:02:56]
Drinkin' beer and playin' moon and forty two[00:03:03]
Just like desperados waitin' for a train[00:03:08]
Like a desperado waitin' for a train[00:03:15]
And a day before he died I went to see him[00:03:25]
I was grown and he was almost gone[00:03:33]
So we just closed our eyes and dreamed us up a kitchen[00:03:39]
And sang another verse to that old song[00:03:47]
Come on Jack that son of a b**ch is comin'[00:03:54]
We're desperados waitin' for a train[00:03:58]
Was like desperados waitin' for a train[00:04:05]
Like desperados waitin' for a train[00:04:12]
Like desperados waitin' for a train[00:04:18]
