rich krueger - in between kingfish كلمات أغنية

kingfisher’s sam m. walton will ‘splain you from his grave
just why he can’t be undersold
that’s where i bought this brand new tent
it run me less than one month’s rent
even less than the mortgage i used to owe
that was ’til the paper was worth more than the house, and the bank said: “go!”
still, winter and fresno won’t meet up again until sometime late halloween
but by then who knows just how bad things just might be
but for now, like all these other families
in all these other tents
i just got caught up a little in between
a little in between

folks say california’s a garden of eden abhez ‘nature boys’
clever as their tans, and beach_stoned to a man
but here in this inland no_town, lives remain
about as easy as fallin’ ‘neath a train
our gov’ner closed new jack city but said we can move on up to his state fair
and his state cops can watch us closer there
summer and sacramento bake you drier than a stone
200 miles north of all you had and all you’d known
and now you’re strung out like a wire
hung from what your future was to wherever the h_ll your future’s gone
and you’re left hanging in between and on your own
forgotten and alone
the kingfish huey p. long sang there’s ‘nough for folks to share
and if you all work hard, you can even be a millionaire
they called him a demagogue, bolshevik, cracker and clown
he sang “every man a king but no man wears a crown”
he built bridges and highways and the hospital at lsu
that was ’til a doctor shot him in 1935 and he bled to death at the age of 42
woody guthrie and f.d.r
sit with sam and huey in an abandoned car
behind a vacant wal_mart in a town like them that’s died
huey strums woodrow’s guitar
and sings a song for working folks with kids who gotta live in their cars
franklin whispers sweetly, “in this light, samuel, you look just like eleanor”
and kingfisher’s sam m. walton can’t recall just what the h_ll his whole life was for
although he’s sure it was gold
or maybe it was green
or maybe something in between?
