Flying Cowboys (Live Acoustic Version)

Down there by the river is a man

Whose horn is twisted into shapes

Unknown to the wicked and the wiseAnd he bears the look of an animal

Who's seen things no animal

Should ever seeHe has been driven beyond all towns

And all systems

Until now though it is long past too far

He keeps goingBecause it's a desert

Because it's a desertWe come to the river

We'll walk away from all this now

We come to the water

We'll walk away from all this nowShe first saw him he was standing in the doorway

Illuminated from behind by a light

Though imaginary posses

Chased them to these distant adobesStanding on the cliffs today

I thought I saw you below

Walking by the river

My shadow growing smallerIt's a desert because

Because it's a desert

They'll be asking us about it forever

I guessWe come to the river

We'll walk away from all this now

Come to the water

We'll walk away from all this nowLong coats on the prairie

Lying in the dust

Who can I turn to?

Who can I trust?Were you walking on the water?

Playing in the sun?

But the world is turning faster

Than it did when I was youngWhen I was young

Oh, when I was youngI was a wild, wild one

When I was young
