lirik lagu stephen simmons - west
so i headed west
and i hopped a train
traded my old dirt plow
for a prospecting claim
san francisco
the golden coast
on the edge of the new world
lit with an ambitious glow
the son of a migrant
from the old world’s sh0r-s
scottish-irish mixed with the blood of the native born
in love with a gypsy
fleeing revolution in a foreign land
her father seeks the yellow color
like i seek his daughter’s hand
working on the railroad to make my way
the creeks of brysonville now lie so far away
still she waits
chorus:
heaven can be found
when she lets her gold hair down
on any field that she lay
there’s a tremble in the ground
when you let that poor girl down
in the california earth is what they say
staring into the evening sun
at the end of a long work day
alone with your thoughts
aside the hammer’s heavy weight
i memorized
every soft line on her face
and not a million miles of railroad ties
could ever erase
the blood in my veins would surely turn to sand
should i arrive too late to be her man
i pray she waits
chorus:
heaven can be found
when she lets her gold hair down
on any field that she lay
there’s a tremble in the ground
when you let that poor girl down
in the california earth is what they say
