Great Divide
They still listen to high school football On the radio in West Texas The lights still shine bright Every Friday Night And you can drive 90 miles an hour Down the highway straight through Sisco The cops are at the ball game, its gettin' tight And the sky gets wider and wider You disappear like the day Into the Great Divide you fade away Its another world all together In the middle of God's country Smells like money, smells like shit, yea it smells like hell But when the cattle's all together And the pump-jacks all are movin' And the cotton's all in bloom And it smells like nothin' else And the sky gets wider and wider Just like a brand new day Out in the Great Divide you fade away Its the land of my people Letras de cancionesDreamers come out here to find a bigger piece of sky Its all the winners and all the losers Real good people, just like you and I Yea but nothin's really changed much As you drive down I-20 Mexicans still work out in the field And everybody's dirty Man, their all just a bunch of gamblers And some got rich, but their gamblers still ANd the sky gets wider and wider Today's gunna be your day Out in the Great Divide you face away Its the land of my people Dreamers come out here to find a bigger piece of sky Its all the winners and all the losers Real good people, just like you and I They still listen to high school football On the radio in west Texas Lights still shine bright every Friday night From Letras Mania
