Dan L.J. Goodman or a Hole in the Sky

DAN L.J. GOODMAN (1944-2004) OR A HOLE IN THE SKY

We were driving out in the heat of July

On this burning road up to a hole in the sky

My friend he’s smiling, he’s got the sun in his eyes

He’s just tripping and I’m enjoying the ride

We meet this man, he’s a bum and he’s high

He says “life’s just a horseshoe, I’ll owe you guys”

He jumps in the car says he’s happy we drove by

He’s going to the ocean, wants to swim to the other side

It’s my road to freedom, I’ll be a great man if I don’t die

I’ll build a kingdom, we’ll all rule side by side

We were driving out in the heat of July

On this burning road up to a hole in the sky

This dude he’s smiling, he’s got the sun in his eyes

He’s just tripping and we’re enjoying the ride

We left him at the edge of the land and waved goodbye

Said “life’s just a horseshoe, we’ll owe you one man”
