Elderado

from Time To Bide by Monty Bevins

lyrics

Desert road, broken down, elderado
Billowing smoke and hissing sounds
Side of the road and pissing out
Oil agh the buzzing flys, sweat pours into his eyes

Native American wise messenger men
Dust in the distance a misfit band of most unlikely friends
Fire in their dust tins, swords and their ten pins
Flying high above them as they sing

A little further down the road, wrangling with all he's owed
In a suit from long ago, wishes he could somehow slow
But trailing him on all fours, poised and set to dig its claws
Jumps up on to his back, shadow's on the attack

Native American wise messenger men
Arrive on wild horses a misfit band of most unlikely friends
Fire in their dust tins, swords and their ten pins
Smile while attempting crazy things

Set one loose from the pack, one they had out the back
Taking off in midday heat, shadow falls underneath
Hand in hand, 4 or 5, reasons to stay alive
Never straying staying sound, steady companion found

Native American wise messenger men
Off in the distance a misfit band of most unlikely friends
Fire in their dust tins, swords and their ten pins
Flying high above them as they sing
