Desperados Waiting For A Train (等待列车的亡命之徒) - Guy Clark[00:00:00]
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' [00:00:20]
"I wonder Lord has every well I've drilled gone dry " [00:00:27]
We were friends me and this old man [00:00:34]
Like desperados waitin' for a train [00:00:39]
Desperados waitin' for a train [00:00:46]
Well he's a drifter an' a driller of oil wells [00:00:56]
And an old school man of the world [00:01:03]
He taught me how to drive his car when he w's too drunk to [00:01:09]
Oh and he'd wink and give me money for the girls [00:01:17]
An' our lives were like some old Western movie [00:01:24]
Like desperados waitin' for a train [00:01:29]
Like desperados waitin' for a train [00:01:35]
An' from the time that I could walk he'd take me with him [00:01:46]
To a bar called the Green Frog Cafe [00:01:53]
An' there was old men with beer guts and dominos [00:01:59]
Oh an they're lying 'bout their lives while they played [00:02:07]
An' I was just a kid that they all called his sidekick [00:02:13]
Like desperados waitin' for a train [00:02:19]
Like desperados waitin' for a train [00:02:25]
One day I looked up and he's pushin' eighty [00:02:36]
An' he's brown tobacco stains all down his chin [00:02:43]
Well to me he's one of the heroes of this country [00:02:49]
So why's he all dressed up like them old men [00:02:56]
He's drinkin' beer and playin' Moon and Forty-two [00:03:03]
Like a desperado waitin' for a train [00:03:08]
Like a desperado waitin' for a train [00:03:15]
An' then the 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 like desperados waitin' for a train[00:03:58]
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]
