Testo Indian Cowboy - Townes Van Zandt
Testo della canzone Indian Cowboy (Townes Van Zandt), tratta dall'album Roadsongs
Well, the next time you go to the circus
Where the wallendas walk on the wire
Here's a tale for you to remember
When the white horse's leap rings the fire
It was a cold night in Oklahoma
And the show was about to begin
And the animals, they were all restless
And the star horse, she breaks from her pen
Oh, she was a mare of high spirit
Like a hooker on a Saturday night
And kicking and bucking past the men that were brushing
The elephants down for the night
Well, next to the tent sits a lantern
Dangerously close to the hay
And that mare headed straight for that lantern
That some fool had left there by mistake
Well, and up jumps this Indian cowboy
And his lasso, it whirls through the air
And in the folded middle of danger
He ropes that runaway mare
Well, the elephants raised up their trumpets
And two of 'em broke from their chains
They stampeded that Indian cowboy
That had saved the big top from flames
So if you ever go out to the circus
(This may be the only circus song I ever liked in my life)
(I don't like zoo songs either)
Where the wallendas walk on the wire
Remember that Indian cowboy
When the white horse's leap rings the fire
