Western Stars歌词

作词 : Bruce Springsteen
作曲 : Bruce Springsteen
I wake up in the morning, just glad my boots are on
Instead of empty in the whispering grasses
Down the Five at Forest Lawn
On the set, the makeup girl brings me two raw eggs
And a shot of gin
Then I give it all up for that little blue pill
That promises to bring it all back to you again
Ride me down easy, ride me down easy, friend
Tonight the western stars are shining bright again
Here in the canyons above Sunset,
The desert don't give up the fight
A coyote with someone’s Chihuahua
In its teeth skitters 'cross my veranda in the night
Some lost sheep from Oklahoma sips her Mojito
Down at the Whiskey Bar
Smiles and says she thinks she remembers me
From that commercial with the credit card
Hell, these days there ain't no more,
Now there’s just again
Tonight the western stars are shining bright again
Some days I take my El Camino,
Throw my saddle in and go
East to the desert where the charros,
They still ride and rope
Our American brothers cross the wire
And bring the old ways with them
Tonight the western stars are shining bright again
Once I was shot by John Wayne,
Yeah, it was towards the end
That one scene's bought me a thousand drinks,
Set me up and tell it for you, friend
Here's to the cowboys, riders in the whirlwind
Tonight the western stars are shining bright again
And the western stars are shining bright again
Tonight the riders on Sunset
Are smothered in the Santa Ana winds
And the western stars are shining bright again
C'mon and ride me down easy, ride me down easy, friend
'Cause tonight the western stars are shining bright again
I woke up this morning just glad my boots were on
