Bordertown
Out on a range in a season too soonNo electric light up in my roomWith a dark skin woman I'm naked and saneYou could learn about the world in an afternoonChorusThe bordertown shook my handIt was the gateway to some other landThe bordertown is the great divideJust the gateway to some other sideI got to get acrossNow some folks live in the trailer parkWith the Naugahyde law and the liquor sharkWhere the networks and the new machineThey don't even try to make no markWhen you came round I loved you wellWhen you got paid it was harder to tellNow I got no grind with cruel goldI'm just sitting 'round wondering what next to sell From Letras Mania
