Takin' it easy with a friend of mine Down by the diamond talkin' 'bout them shifty ways of time He said to me You can get free, unless you make your move And I said Ain't that the truth So I cut a million skylines, scars and borderlines, just tryin' to find the sun You know it was somewhere around Sante Fe When some l-ate night pr-eacher told me son Listen to me, the devil can't get you cause he ain't got proof And I said Ain't that the truth So take me down that open road, light on my fire
Well sing me that song from yesteryear When we were all right Cuttin this deep in the history Shoulder to shoulder we'll stand over the grave Watchin' the hatchet lowerin' on down I say, man Years ago we should have called this truce He said Ain't that the truth So take me down that open road, light up a fire High Sing me that song from yesteryear When we were all right Cause it's deep in the history Ain't that the truth Ain't that the truth Ain't that the truth
