Don Juan\x27s Reckless Daughter

歌曲歌詞

I came out two days on your tail

Those two bald headed days in November

Before the first snowflakes sail

Out on the vast and subtle plains of mystery

A split tongue spirit talks

Noble as a nickel chief

Striking up an old juke box

Snakes along the railroad tracks

He says eagles in jet trails

He says coils around feathers and talons on scales

Gravel under the belly plates

He says wind in the wings

He says big bird dragging its tail in the dust

Snake kite flying on a string

I come from open prairie

Given some wisdom and a lot of jive

Last night the ghosts of my old ideas

Reran on channel five

And it howled so spooky for its eagle soul

I nearly broke down and cried

But the split tongue spirit laughed at me

He says your serpent cannot be denied

Our serpents love the whisky bars

They love the romance of the crime

But didn't I see a neon sign

Fester on your hotel blind

And a country road come off the wall

And swoop down at the crowd at the bar

And put me at the top of your danger list

Just for being so much like you are
