Waylon Jennings - Out Among the Stars lyrics

It's midnight at a liquor store in Texas I's closin' time another day is done When a boy walks in the door and points a pistol Me can't find a job but Lord he's found a gun. He pulls it off with no trace of confrontation They let the ol' man run out in the street Even though he knows they'll come with guns a blazin' And already he can feel that great relief. Oh, how many travelers get weary Bearing both their burdens and their scars Don't you think they'd love to stop complaining And fly like eagles out among the stars. He pictures the arrival of the cruisers Sees that old familiar anger in their eyes He knows that when they're shootin' at this loser The'll be aiming at the demons in their lives. Oh, how many travelers get weary Bearing both their burdens and their scars Don't you think they'd love to stop complaining And fly like eagles out among the stars. Evening news it carries all the details He dies in every living room in town In his own a bottle's thrown in anger And his father cries we'll never live this down. Oh, how many travelers get weary Bearing both their burdens and their scars Don't you think they'd love to stop complaining And fly like eagles out among the stars. Fly like eagles out among the stars
