Bordertown lyrics
Song information
Artist: The Walkabouts Album: Setting The Woods On Fire
Lyrics
I can sleep it off Sleep it back to sleep I can be most anything I want A long way from the shade The north side of the moon Down here only rich men lose their shirts
And john law wakes to sweep The morning off the street But no one cares if he has done his job And postcards never came From race tracks by the sea From a gambler who says: "you are still my lucky thing."
Bordertown There's been an accident in bordertown Bordertown I am your accident in bordertown
Coyotes stirs the drinks And drives his stolen jeep And drives the kingsnake to its happy hole But I stand in the clear The only place he fears The only place he's never seen me stand
Bordertown There's been an accident in bordertown Bordertown I am your accident in bordertown
There ain't no seasons here But the freezin' still appears Everytime I call this home Can't be enough alone
I can sleep it off Sleep it back to sleep I can be most anything I want A long way from the shade The north side of the moon Down here only taxi drivers know my name
