You've long been on the open road You've been sleepin' in the rain From dirty words and mud of the cells Your clothes are soiled and stained
But the dirty words and the muddy cells Will soon be judged insane So only stop and rest yourself And you'll be off again
So take off your thirsty boots And stay for a while Your feet are hot and weary From a dusty mile
And maybe I can make you laugh Maybe I can try Just lookin' for the evenin' And the mornin' in your eyes
So tell me of the ones you see As far as you could see Across the plains from field to town A marchin' to be free
And of the rusted prison gates That tumble by degree Like laughin' children one by one They look like you and me
So take off your thirsty boots And stay for awhile Your feet are hot and weary From a dusty mile
Maybe I can make you laugh Maybe I can try Lookin' for the evenin' And the mornin' in your eyes
I know you are no stranger Down the crooked rainbow trials From dancing cliff edge, shattered sills Of slander shackled jails
But the melodies drift up from below As walls are bein' scaled Yes and all of this and more my friend Your song shall not be failed
So take off your thirsty boots And stay for a while Your feet are hot and weary From a dusty mile
Maybe I can make you laugh And maybe I can try Just lookin' for the evenin' And the mornin' in your eyes
Yes you've long been on the open road You've been sleepin' in the rain From dirty words and mud of the cells Your clothes are soiled and stained
But the dirty words and the muddy cells Will soon be judged insane So only stop and rest yourself And you'll be off again
So take off your thirsty boots And stay for a while Your feet are hot and weary From a dusty mile
Maybe I can make you laugh And maybe I can try Lookin' for the evenin' And the mornin' in your eyesTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
