turnpike troubadours - on the red river كلمات أغنية

[verse 1]
there’s a mid_july whitetail in velvet
red as your old chevrolet
and i was sixteen when you wrecked it and we
were lucky we both walked away
and you could day work and scr_pe out a living
the work for which you had been born
you were quick with a laugh and forgiven
and tied hard and fast to the h_rn
we had kelpies and good quarter horses
we had wheat pasture yearlings tied down
we learned pain was the price of admission
and you’re never done paying it down

[chorus]
back on the red river, not hard to remember
when your daddy wouldn’t ever get old
when i saw the world from up on your shoulders
i remember the view, when you live like we do
death doesn’t leave with the best part of you

[verse 2]
on days off, we’d help out our neighbors
and we smiled and we sweated for free
you’d earned every drink with your labor
and i’d sleep on your front seat ’til 3
and you’d call it a cure for a snake bite
and reach for a fifth of old crow
some medicine should get your head right
when your symptoms were starting to show
[chorus]
back on the red river, not hard to remember
when your daddy wouldn’t ever get old
when i saw the world from up on your shoulders
i remember the view, when you live like we do
death doesn’t leave with the best part of you

[verse 3]
and there are pickups lined up down the driveway
have i really been gone for two years?
i’d be on my third on a good day
i find my last bottle of beer
i guess sat_rday started without you
i knew before i got the call
the red july bucks are in velvet
i’ll tell you about ’em this fall

[chorus]
back on the red river, not hard to remember
when your daddy wouldn’t ever get old
i got a look at the world from up on your shoulders
i remember the view, when you live like we do
death doesn’t leave with the best part of you

[outro]
got a look at the world from up on your shoulders
i remember the view, when you live like we do
death doesn’t leave with the best part of you
