Desperados Waiting for a Train (等待列车的亡命之徒) (Live|1990 Version) - Lawrence Welk with The Lennon Sisters[00:00:00]
Written by:Guy Clark[00:00:00]
I'd play The Red River Valley[00:00:14]
He'd sit out in the kitchen and cry[00:00:21]
And run his fingers through seventy years of livin'[00:00:27]
And wonder Lord has every well I drilled run dry[00:00:34]
We were friends me and this ol' man[00:00:42]
Like desperados waiting for a train[00:00:47]
Like desperados waiting for a train[00:00:54]
He was a drifter and a driller of oil wells[00:01:04]
Ol' school man of the world[00:01:11]
He let me drive his car when he was too drunk to[00:01:18]
He'd wink and give me money for the girls[00:01:26]
And our lives were like some ol' western movie[00:01:31]
Like desperados waiting for a train[00:01:37]
Like desperados waiting for a train[00:01:43]
From the time that I could walk he'd take me with him[00:01:55]
To a bar called The Green Frog Cafe[00:02:01]
And there were ol' men with beer guts and dominos[00:02:07]
Lyin' 'bout their lives while they played[00:02:15]
I was just a kid they called his sidekick[00:02:21]
Like desperados waiting for a train[00:02:26]
Like desperados waiting for a train[00:02:33]
One day I looked up and he was pushin' eighty[00:02:43]
And ther was brown tobacco stains on all down his chin[00:02:49]
To me he's one of the heros of this country[00:02:57]
So why's he dressed up like them ol' men[00:03:03]
Drinkin' beer and playin' Moon and Forty-Two[00:03:10]
Like desperados waiting for a train[00:03:15]
Like desperados waiting for a train[00:03:22]
The day before he died I went to see him[00:03:33]
I was grown and he was almost gone[00:03:39]
We just closed our eyes and dreamed us up a kitchen[00:03:45]
And sang another verse to that ol' song[00:03:53]
C'mon Jack That son of a gun's a-comin'[00:03:59]
Like desperados waiting for a train[00:04:04]
Like desperados waiting for a train[00:04:11]
Like desperados waiting for a train[00:04:17]
Like desperados waiting for a train[00:04:24]
