Blue Wing

Blue Wing - Dave Alvin[00:00:00]

He had a blue wing tattooed on his shoulder[00:00:01]

It might have been a blue bird I don't know[00:00:06]

But he gets stone drunk and talks about Alaska[00:00:11]

The salmon boats and 45 below[00:00:16]

He said he got that blue wing up in walla walla[00:00:21]

Where his cellmate there was little Willy John[00:00:26]

And willy he was once a great blues singer[00:00:31]

And winging willy wrote him up a song[00:00:36]

He said it's dark in here can't see the sky[00:00:40]

But I look at this blue wing and I close my eyes[00:00:46]

And I fly away beyond these walls[00:00:50]

Up above the clouds where the rain don't fall[00:00:55]

On a poor man's dreams[00:01:03]

They paroled blue wing in August of 1963[00:01:10]

And he moved on picking apples to the town of wenatchee[00:01:15]

Then winter finally caught him in a run-down trailer park[00:01:20]

On the south side of seattle where the days grow gray and dark[00:01:25]

And he drank and he dreamt of visions when the salmon still ran free[00:01:30]

And his father's fathers crossed that wild old bering sea[00:01:35]

And the land belonged to everyone and there were old songs yet to sing[00:01:40]

Now it's narrowed down to a cheap hotel and a tattooed prison wing[00:01:45]

He said it's dark in here can't see the sky[00:01:49]

But I look at this blue wing and I close my eyes[00:01:54]

And I fly away beyond these walls[00:01:59]

Up above the clouds where the rain don't fall[00:02:04]

On a poor man's dreams[00:02:11]

Well he drank his way to LA and that's where he died[00:02:34]

But no one knew his Christian name and there was no one there to cry[00:02:39]

But I dreamt there was a service a preacher and a cheap pine box[00:02:44]

And half way through the service blue wing began to talk[00:02:49]

He said it's dark in here can't see the sky[00:02:54]

But I look at this blue wing and I close my eyes[00:02:59]

And then I fly away beyond these walls[00:03:04]

Up above the clouds where the rain don't fall[00:03:09]

On a poor man's dreams[00:03:16]

On a poor man's dreams[00:03:21]

On a poor man's dreams[00:03:29]
