I wanna tell you about Texas Radio and the Big Beat |
|
Comes out of the Virginia swamps |
|
Cool and slow with a back beat |
|
Narrow and hard to master |
|
Some call it heavenly in it's brilliance |
|
Others, mean and ruthful of the Western dream |
|
I love the friends I have gathered together on this thin raft |
|
We've constructed pyramids in honor of our escaping |
|
This is the land where the Pharaoh died |
|
Children, |
|
The river contains specimens |
|
The voices of singing women |
|
Call us on the far shore |
|
And they are saying, |
|
"Forget the Night |
|
live with us in Forests of azure" |
|
Meager food for souls forgot |
|
I tell you this; |
|
No eternal reward will |
|
Forgive us now for |
|
Wasting the dawn |
|
And one morning you awoke |
|
And the strange sun |
|
And opening your door... |
