David Keenan - El Paso lyrics

I was told long ago that you learn more on
A building site than you would in school
I don't know who's to know in El Paso
Friday night still floodlights you
Hear us roar sing the town til we die
Then our throats went sore
We have grown on the road to El Paso
Photographs on your mantlepiece they fade
Sitting at some bus stop in the pouring rain
In your mind things that you've seen
Leather shoes on the other foot
How does that feel
If you want to go I'll take you there
Feel the rain on your face in the morning
Ahh let's go back, take me back to El Paso
Go around with your tie and
Your briefcase with a look
On your face like I'm a waste of space
Take me back, take me back to El Paso
Ohhh take a walk, take a
Walk down the echo road, i'll be waiting
Don't you know I'll be waiting
And if you want to go I'll take you there
Feel the rain on your face in the morning
Ahh let's go back, take me back to El Paso
Go around with your tie and
Your briefcase with a look
On your face like I'm a waste of space
Take me back, take me back
Take me back, let's go back to El
Paso, to El Paso, to El Paso
To my El Pas-o-o-o-o-o
