lyrics

Altiplano
In the rearview mirror
I’ll be back someday
Like Pancho headed south

We fought a battle
On the hill in Zacatecas
May have won with my words
But she would rather lose

Spent a night
In the heat of Torreón
Perhaps we’ve lost our trust
But still we carry on

Cross the bridge
Mine the veins for silver
But there’s no spoils to give her

It’s a long road
She said “take me home”
But we haven’t got a home
And we haven’t got a long road
Coming to a close
Sunset on the driver’s side
Took me on a four year ride

Walked the ruins
In Casas Grandes
Where the Mormons hid
Their loving from the law

And when the guns come out
We keep our heads and drive
For a moment I feel alive

Reach the Gadsden line
A folly on the map
Another battle awaits
Like Pancho headed north

The might Colorado
Cuts a canyon to the sea
Her currents rage
Cut a chasm right through me

It’s a long road
She said “take me home”
But we haven’t got a home
And we haven’t got a long road
Coming to a close
Sunset on the driver’s side
Took me on a four year ride

It’s a long road
She said “take me home”
But we haven’t got a home
And we haven’t got a long road
Coming to a close
Sunset on the driver’s side
