Dirty River Boys - Falcon's Song lyrics

Bow your head and close your eyes there's no getting' off this ride With a blanket wrapped around your skin You're shakin' like a leaf my friend You never found your peace in life this double edge has cut you twice Snortin' up your dollar bills until your heart's too numb to feel And he played me a song about a cowboy way out west, His heart was dying' faster than a snakebite to the chest, And he sang in such detail every word a goddamn sin, Then he turned his horse and rode off in this old El Paso wind. In your boots I've walked a mile, To figure out why you don't smile From all the books I've ever read It's nothin' like your mother said Some folks were made to stand alone Born with blood that must run cold Well friend I hope you find your means While chasin' down your crazy dreams. And he played me a song about a cowboy way out west, His heart was dying' faster than a gunshot to the chest, And he sang in such detail I began to feel like him, Then he turned his horse and rode off in this old El Paso wind. He turned his horse and rode off in this damn El Paso wind.
