Lyrics

Well, it's two eggs up, on whiskey toast Home fries on the side You wash 'er down with roadhouse coffee That burns up your insides It's just a canyon, Colorado diner A waitress I did love We sat in the back, 'neath an old stuffed bear A worn out Navajo rug Aye, aye, aye, Katie Shades of red and blue Aye, aye, aye, Katie Whatever became of the Navajo rug and you? Well, Old Jack, the boss, he left at six It was "Katie, bar the door" She'd pull down that Navajo rug And we'd spread it 'cross the floor I saw lightnin' frame the sacred mountains The movement of the turtle dove Just lyin' next to Katie On that old Navajo rug Aye, aye, aye, Katie Shades of red and blue Aye, aye, aye, Katie Whatever became of the Navajo rug and you? Well, I saw Old Jack about a year ago Said the place burnt to the ground All he'd saved was an old bear tooth, and Katie, she left town "Well Katie got a souvenir too" Jack smiled as he spit out a big ol' plug "Well you shoulda seen her, comin' through the smoke She was draggin' that Navajo rug!" Aye, aye, aye, Katie Shades of red and blue Aye, aye, aye, Katie Whatever became of the Navajo rug and you? So every time I cross the sacred mountains Lightning jumps above It always takes me back in time To the long lost Katie love You know everything keeps on moving Everybody's on the go And you don't find things that last anymore Like a handwoven Navajo Aye, aye, aye, Katie Shades of red and blue Aye, aye, aye, Katie Whatever became of the Navajo rug and you, Katie? Shades of red and blue Aye, aye, aye, Katie Whatever became of the Navajo rug and you? Whatever became of the Navajo rug and you?
