lirik lagu bill morrissey - barstow
[verse 1]
well, here comes parks
and he’s found another bottle
he tips it up like a trumpet
he takes a drink and passes it on
and every man around the fire
takes a chorus on the bottle
it ain’t much, it ain’t good
but it’ll get us through ’til dawn
[chorus]
well, don’t the freight yard sound like a drunk in a metal shop?
i can’t believe it gets this cold in barstow
and i can’t believe i p~ssed my twenties away
well, if you take me back this time
baby, i promise you i’ll stay
[verse 2]
well, parks takеs another drink
and he starts to sing off key
thеre’s not a man big enough around the fire
to shut him up
and in the cold morn he’s singing
“hey okie, tell arkie
texas found a job in californ”
and everybody around the fire cracks up
[chorus]
well, don’t the freight yard sound like a drunk in a metal shop?
i can’t believe it gets this cold in barstow
and i can’t believe i p~ssed my twenties away
well, if you take me back this time
baby, i promise you i’ll stay
[verse 3]
well, then parks hands me the bottle
he says, “i’m gone to tucson
hole up all winter
at the sally if i can
i don’t mind the praying
and i don’t mind saying
i could listen forever
to that sally brass band”
[verse 4]
and then parks starts laughing hard
but he doesn’t make a sound
he grabs the bottle back from me
and k!lls the last of the wine
and in the fire’s glow i can see his eyes
and they shine like brake lights
and i am grateful
i cannot see mine
[chorus]
well, don’t the freight yard sound like a drunk in a metal shop?
i can’t believe it gets this cold in barstow
and i can’t believe i p~ssed my twenties away
well, if you take me back this time
baby, i promise you i’ll stay
