letra de american rivers - tom russell
ain’t no more cane on the brazos
yeah, yeah yeah
it’s all been ground down to mol-sses
yeah yeah yeah
i saw a red iron sunsets – from a rust iron bridge
in the indian country –of the mockingbird kid
i saw the moon in a boxcar – being carried as freight
through 62 winters – through 48 states
in an old chinese graveyard – i slept in the weeds
when a song and a story – were all a kid needs
hear the rhymes and the rattles – of those runaway trains
and the songs of the cowboy – and the sound of the rain
and it’s mom i miss you
i woke up and screamed
american rivers – roll deep through my dreams
colorado, yeah alleghany, shenandoah, susquehanny
and the wabash and the hudson and the brave rio grande
i was a kid there asleep in the sandy old water
yeah old water
we named ‘em for indians – our guilt to forsake
the delaware the blackfoot – the flathead the snake
now they roll past casinos _ and old hamburger stands
they’re all waving farewell – to the kid on the lamb
with their jig sawed old arteries – so clogged and defiled
no open heart miracle – is gonna turn ’em back wild
past towns gone to bankers – past fields gone to seed
all cut up and carved out – so divided by greed
and old grandfather catfish – with his whiskers so long
and his life in a struggle – cuz the oxygen’s gone
oh mom i miss you
i woke up and screamed
these american rivers – they poison my dreams
colorado, alleghany, shenandoah, susquehanny
and the wabash and the hudson and the brave rio grande
i was a kid there i was asleep in the sandy old water
yeah old water
