Letra de Backbone (The Desert Child)
Well they call me the desert child I was born out in the wild Ain't never been lost to a Southern Cross With a heart that runs a mileWhile the train it waits arrival I will learn to read the Bible I remembered every word Just to sing like a bird And whistle on down the lineOh my backbone, take me back home Wherever you are, tell 'em my star Will leave the light on Oh my backbone, harder than stone Imma go east, imma go west Imma come homeWell the only road to find her From the tread underneath the tire If the fox didn't howl, it'd save us now From the bid of the highest buyer And our hair it grew like fire Like Samson and Delilah But the rust wouldn't hurt From the dust and the dirt That we used to barb the wireOh my backbone, take me back home Wherever you are, tell 'em my star Will leave the light on Oh my backbone, harder than stone Imma go east, imma go west Imma come homeAt night the words were spoken Will the circle be unbroken? And the voice went higher From the family choir And the moon it played in time And the boxcar disappeared With a wave from the engineer And I always come back For the coin on the track Cause it made me a millionaireOh my backbone, take me back home Wherever you are, tell em my star Will leave the light on Oh my backbone, harder than stone Imma go east, Imma go west Imma come home Imma go east, Imma go west Imma come homeWell they call me the desert child I was born out in the wild Ain't never been lost To the Southern Cross With a heart that runs a mile
