Oh the reddish days
seem to warm my bones
and the whiskey women
from the ragged homes
I cannot describe
oh the purple mess
of a dead racehorse
I witness
I've been looking for a friend for so long now
I'm beginning to believe he's gone
So take me back
where I came from
Take me back
where I came from
Oh the rebel lines
and the worm soaked holes
and the cars outside
oh they will never know
I cannot describe
all the worthless roads
taken by the eager and bold
I've been looking for a friend for so long now
I'm beginning to believe he's gone
So take me back
where I came from
Take me back
where I came from
