Call Of The West

He got the high sign so he jumped a bus

Along the roads that wind on through

The hot mojave and the jericho

He'd start his whole life anew

And what he left behind he hadn't valued

Half as much as some things

He never knew



Right around sundown...

He got dropped off on a street in town

Where a grey old man looked him up and down and said

"son, this ain't no western movie matinee

You're a long way off from yippie-yi-yay

'cause i can tell at a glance you're not from 'round these parts

You've got a green look about'cha
