(townes van zandt) Ride the blue wind high and free Shell lead you down through misery Leave you low, come time to go Alone and low as low can be If I had a nickel Id find a game If I won a dollar Id make it rain If it rained an ocean Id drink it dry And lay me down dissatisfied Legs to walk and thoughts to fly Eyes to laugh and lips to cry A restless tongue to classify All born to grow and grown to die So tell my baby I said so long Tell my mother I did no wrong Tell my brother to watch his own And tell my friends to mourn me none Im chained upon the face of time Feelin full of foolish rhyme There aint no dark till something shines Im bound to leave this dark behind Ride the blue wind high and free Shell lead you down through misery Leave you low, come time to go Alone and low as low can be
