Intro: |
A bunch of lonesome and very quarrelsome heroes |
Were smoking out |
along the open road |
The night was very dark and thick between them |
Each man beneath |
his ordinary load |
"I'd like to tell my story," |
Said one of them so young and bold |
"I'd like to tell my story |
Before I turn into gold." |
But no one really could hear him |
The night so dark |
and thick and green |
Well I guess that these heroes |
must always live there |
Where you and I have only been |
Put out your cigarette, my love |
You've been alone too long |
And some of us are very hungry now |
To hear what it is you've done |
that was so wrong |
I sing this for the crickets |
I sing this for the army |
I sing this for your children |
And for all who do not need me |
"I'd like to tell my story," |
Said one of them so bold |
"Oh yes, I'd like to tell my story |
'cause you know I feel |
I'm turning into gold." |
