Letra de Jimmie Rodgers' Dream
I'm looking at a funeral wagon rolling down A two-lane highway winding past a desert town A big blue canvas painted by the Master's hand The shifting clouds above and endless miles of sand In that mirror maybe that's what's left of me Wheezing like a freight train hauling sixty tons of steel Air 'em out's the best release and get some rest Carrie don't wait up for me the brakeman's going West[Chorus] In this room all alone I dream of you In this drawer I found someone I never knewNow I pop a top and stay up late with Gideon And fall asleep to visions of Meridian I've seen dusty beaten delta boys cutting heads A black face carney showman scare a song to death In my short life I've seen as much as most men need Now I'm just looking for some cleaner air to breathe[Repeat chorus]Far away, far away So many years, so many days All along this broken land I've seen a lover's empty arms And hunger's empty hand[Repeat chorus]
