Tasty Tunes [Songs] - Covers

Lyrics:

The fire it stands a blazing wick, the smoke it pours out honey thick.
Down in the lonesome draw, the moon's all snared in midnight's jaws.
The Kingdom of the great prairie, it's home to you and home to me.
Born in waiting, hem and haw, shattered like ol' Dempsey's jaw.

The Railroad men go pushing west, a scar laid out on mother's breast.
What brings liquor and what brings gold, bears the young and saves the old.
It's a short time here and a long time gone, the workmen sing the people's song.
Down in the lonesome draw, the sun it bakes the rawhide raw.

If you don't like Dodge you can always go to Abilene,
I hear the gettin's plenty and the grass is always green.
Or you could always head to Kansas City where they pave all of their roads,
But the vices flow like the Ohio and the Governor's on parole.

My heart lies on a high plateau, the Texas bull stands lowing low.
River's meant to separate but it just unites the Border state.
No one still can understand what life is like int he Border land.
And here's to the great expanse, where everyday is a poisonous dance.

If you don't like Dodge you can always go to Abilene,
I hear the gettin's plenty and the grass is always green.
Or you could always head to Kansas City where they pave all of their roads,
But the vices flow like the Ohio and the Governor's on parole.
