[00:00:00] Desperados Waiting For A Train (Album Version) - Highwaymen

[00:00:01] Written by：Guy Clark

[00:00:13] I played the Red River Valley

[00:00:19] And he'd sit out in the kitchen and cry

[00:00:25] An' run his fingers through seventy years of living

[00:00:32] An' wonder lord as ever will that drill run dry

[00:00:39] We were friends me an this old man

[00:00:44] Like desperados waiting for a train

[00:00:50] Like desperados waiting for a train

[00:01:01] He's a drifter and a driller of oil wells

[00:01:07] And an old-school man of the world

[00:01:14] He'd let me drive his car when he's too drunk to

[00:01:20] And he'd wink and give me money for the girls

[00:01:26] And our lives were like some old western movie

[00:01:31] Like desperados waiting for a train

[00:01:38] Like desperados waiting for a train

[00:01:48] From the time that I could walk he'd take me with him

[00:01:55] To a bar called the Green Frog Cafe

[00:02:01] And there were old men with beer-guts and dominoes

[00:02:08] Lying about their lives while they play

[00:02:15] And I was just a kid they called his sidekick

[00:02:19] Like desperados waiting for a train

[00:02:26] Like desperados waiting for a train

[00:02:36] One day I looked up and he's pushing eighty

[00:02:42] And there's brown tobacco stains all down his chin

[00:02:49] To me he's one of the heroes of this country

[00:02:55] So why is he all dressed up like them old men

[00:03:02] Drinking beer and playing moon in fourty two

[00:03:07] Like desperados waiting for a train

[00:03:13] Like desperados waiting for a train

[00:03:24] The day before he died I went to see him

[00:03:30] I was grown and he was almost gone

[00:03:36] So we just closed our eyes and dreamed of supper kitchens

[00:03:43] And sang another verse to that old song

[00:03:49] Come on Jack that son-of-a-gun's a-coming

[00:03:55] Like desperados waiting for a train

[00:04:01] Like desperados waiting for a train

[00:04:08] Like desperados waiting for a train

[00:04:14] Like desperados waiting for a train
