You've long been on the open road you've been sleepin' in the rainFrom dirty words and muddy cells your clothes are soiled and stainedBut the dirty words and the mud of cells will soon be judged insaneSo only stop and rest yourself and you'll be off againOh take off your thirsty boots And stay for awhileYour feet are hot and weary from a dusty mileAnd maybe I can make you laughAnd maybe I can tryLookin' for the evenin'And the mornin' in your eyesThen tell me of the ones you sawAs far as you could seeAcross the plains from field to townMarchin' to be freeAnd of the rusted prison gates that tumble by degreeLike laughing children one by oneThey look like you and meSo take off your thirsty boots and stay for awhileYour feet are hot and weary from a dusty mileAnd maybe I can make you laugh and maybe I can tryJust lookin' for the evenin' and the mornin' in your eyesSongtexteI know you are no stranger down the crooked rainbow trialFrom dancing cliff edge shattered sills to slander shackled jailsWhere the voices drift up from below as walls are bein' scaledYes all of this and more my friend your song shall not be failedOh take off your thirsty boots and stay for awhileYour feet are hot and weary, from a dusty mileAnd maybe I can make you laugh, and maybe I can tryJust lookin for the evenin' and the mornin' in your eyes So take off your thirsty boots and stay for awhileYour feet are hot and weary from a dusty mileAnd maybe I can make you laugh and maybe I can tryLookin' for the evenin' and the mornin' in your eyes Aus Songtexte Mania
