lirik lagu utah phillips - phoebe snow
i climbed on board through a wide open door
just as she started to roll,
and i rode so light through the long summer night
in the arms of my own phoebe snow.
(chorus)
(spoken)
many a night i’ve sat by the fire
in a circle of stone silent men,
and heard the sagebrush whistle and pop
and the coffee boil in the can.
the bottoms were filled with a cool river wind
and the treetops chasing the moon
and i knew without saying to take my guitar
and play up some slow gentle tune.
i played up a face i knew long ago
and the song was the sound of a name,
i knew without looking that every man there
was each of them doing the same.
then i played up some hands so pale and small
with a touch as light as the rain,
and i knew without looking that every man there
was each of ’em feeling the same.
then i played up the booze and the holes in the shoes
of a man whose life is a cage,
and all the things done to make a man run,
the hard luck and failures of age –
then i stopped with a crash – we looked into the ash,
helpless with longing and rage.
now a traveling life might seem all right,
a life without worry or care;
always up and always out and always going somewhere,
but i’ll tell you, friend-it’s not where you are
but your reason for being there.
(sung)
and then i awoke as the day broke,
and gazed out over the plain,
thinking as how i’m better off now
being in love with a train.
(chorus)
