Testo Fly Back Home - John Hiatt feat. The Goners
Testo della canzone Fly Back Home (John Hiatt feat. The Goners), tratta dall'album Beneath This Gruff Exterior
Saw a red-tail hawk, he broke here
Said, "Man what happened to your dignity?"
He said, "Subdivisions have taken my home
There's no more prey to eat"
I said, "Where we gonna live?"
He said, "Anywhere you want to, I guess
All you creatures walking upright 'round here
Well you really made a mess"
I wish we both could fly back home
To the green fields of our youth
Where friends and family set the tone
With the hardcore language of the truth
I know time's been on destruction
The past is over every day
I wish we both could fly back home
But we can't, so I guess I'll just fly away
An owl swooped in as I was driving my pickup through the creek
He said, "I was only trying to scare you
But instead you scared the hell right out of me
With 345 horses, a locking differential, and four-wheel drive
I guess you were living large there, country boy
I was just trying to survive"
I wish we both could fly back home
To the green fields of our youth
Where friends and family set the tone
With the hardcore language of the truth
I know time's been on destruction
The past is over every day
I wish we both could fly back home
But we can't, so I guess I'll just fly away
Fly away
There was a rattlesnake up on the road
I ran him over and over until he died
Then his ghost rose up and coiled around this fear I hold inside
And he flew on off to heaven as I sat there in my instrument of death
I had to think what I was doing
I had to think just to draw another breath
I wish we both could fly back home
To the green fields of our youth
Where friends and family set the tone
With the hardcore language of the truth
I know time's been on destruction
The past is over every day
I wish we both could fly back home
But we can't, so I guess I'll just fly away
I wish we both could fly back home
But we can't, so I guess I'll just fly away
