Clandestine - Long Journey South lyrics

Jamie's gone away to cross the widest plain Find some undiscovered kings and princes Jamie's jumped the train to live bravely for a day Ride the rails in some lost romances Infamous hobos crouch in the car Singing along in the night old pioneers looking for the lost frontier under the dark western sky and the night wore on More people jumped the train at Gra** Valley the next day Pulled out so fast they nearly lost their hold Across the snow fields And over ravines Yellow skies of snowfall the sun winks and dreams ::Chorus:: The mountains are marching the deserts rolling home It's a long ways away from a place we all know I'll give you my hand We'll roll like a stone Show me the places the wild birds know and the night wore on Jamie sits and he knows the place where we go is oh, so much farther than old Mexico If I'm alone I'd rather be here than home I like to have a song to sing the night wore on Jamie's gone away to catch the last of the trains and it's a long journey south Jamie jumped the train when the world was dark and strange and a smile played the corners of his mouth the night wore on
