It's midnight at a liquor store in Texas Closing time another day is done When a boy walks in the door and points a pistol He can't find a job but Lord he's found a gun
He pulls it off with no trace of confrontation That he lets the old man run out in the street Even though he knows they'll come with guns a blazing Already he can feel that great relief
Oh how many travelers get wear-y Bearing both their burdens and their scars Don't you think they'd love to start all over And fly like eagles out among the stars
He pictures the arrival of the cruisers Sees that old familiar anger in their eyes He knows that when they're shooting at this loser They'll be aiming at the demons in their lives
Oh how many travelers get wear-y Bearing both their burdens and their scars Don't you think they'd love to start all over And fly like eagles out among the stars
The evening news carries all the details He dies in every living room in town In his own a bottle's thrown in anger And his father cries we'll never live this down
Oh how many travelers get wear-y Bearing both their burdens and their scars Don't you think they'd love to start all over And fly like eagles out among the stars
