Western Skies Songtext

von Hot Rize

The cold and grey just wears me down
Day after day in this hard luck town
Can't keep a dollar can't make a frown
Don't believe I'll be content again
'Til I see those western skies
Sunshine on the open plain
Blue sky across the mountain range
When I'm free that's where I'll be
There's a girl who's been on my mind
A precious jewel so hard to find
Said some things that I take back now
Maybe I'll get a second chance somehow
When I see those western skies
Sunshine on the open plain
Blue sky across the mountain range
When I'm free that's where I'll be
I fight my way through another day
Rode blocks at every turn
Nobody even looks my way
Don't know how to make my get away
A heavy load weighing on my back
As I walk along these rusty tracks
I sit alone out on the pier
Marking time 'til I get out of here
So I can see those western skies
Sunshine on the open plain
Blue sky across the mountain range
When I'm free that's where I'll be
