Bruce Springsteen - Western Stars lyrics
[Bruce Springsteen - Western Stars lyrics]
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 it's 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
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 it's 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
