New Mexico

Daddy and I went down, to the Buckhorn Saloon Stayed all day and into the night, what a couple of loons. We come out fresh snow on the pine, whiskey like a halo, He said stake your claim but don't let em get the soul, And meet me in New Mexico The years go flying by, freight cars on a train, Daddy's long gone, and there's times of trouble, Life's a losing game. Dreaming up a Navajo Sunset, asleep at the traffic light, Don't wanna go home if I could just go, Meet you in New Mexico It's a long way, from the city, It's long way from the black and white skyline Santa fe painted up so pretty, time out of mind, Break those chains that bind Strange days indeed, the more we got, the more we need. Why are we so mad? Baby why are you so sad? Waking up in the middle of your life, Staring at your own tombstone We can grow old or we can just grow, Out in New Mexico It's a long way, from the city, It's long way from the black and white skyline Santa fe painted up so pretty, time out of mind, Break those chains that bind It's a long way, from the city, It's long way from the black and white skyline Santa fe painted up so pretty, time out of mind, Break those chains that bind
