Somewhere in the back bar, by the side of a motorway |
|
Someone takes a breath and takes the stage then starts to play |
|
In the back of a thousand bars and by the side of a thousand roads |
|
One word, rusted bones and on is toil explode |
|
They cast long shadows in the evening sun |
|
But when the morning comes they've moved along |
|
They cast long shadows in the evening sun |
|
But when the morning comes they've moved along |
|
Hey, hey, Mr. Dylan, I have written you a song |
|
For the river of the singers that still rolls along |
|
So here's to Ragan, and here Marwood |
|
Here's to Tim and Jonah too |
|
Here's to the ones who have to take the stage and sing the tune |
|
They cast long shadows in the evening sun |
|
But when the morning comes they've moved along |
|
They cast long shadows in the evening sun |
|
But when the morning comes they've moved along |
|
Sing 'til you sweat for the spirit of the age |
|
Sing life to lines that are dead on the page |
|
Sing for your sorrow, your wisdom, your rage |
|
Sing out |
|
Sing for the records you played 'til they broke |
|
For the parts you insisted that nobody spoke |
|
Sing for the words that you knew, but they still made you choke |
|
Cast a long shadows in the evening sun |
|
And when the morning comes, pass it along |
|
Cast a long shadows in the evening sun |
|
But when the morning comes, pass it along |
|
Cast a long shadows in the evening sun |
|
And when the morning comes, pass it along |
|
Cast a long shadows in the evening sun |
|
And when the morning comes, pass it along |
