Josh Ritter - Southern Pacifica lyrics
[Josh Ritter - Southern Pacifica lyrics]
Southern Pacific red, white and blue
Where are we running to?
Over the wide plains over the wide plains
Take me to some place new
Remember me to Roxy Anne
(You know she’s still lovely)
Tell her I was on the move
(The last time you saw me)
That you only saw the back of my head
Climb through the timbers
And I’ll breathe the dust of
Cosmos and wild rose bud
Thunder the unknowns
In the phosphorous white glow of
Sabertooth bones in the dusk
Remember me to Roxy Anne
(You know she’s still lovely)
Tell her I was barely there
(The last time you saw me)
That you only saw the back of my head
Southern Pacific take me to meet
Whatever is hunting for me
Where are we running to?
Over the wide plains over the wide plains
Take me to some place new
Remember me to Roxy Anne
(You know she’s still lovely)
Tell her I was on the move
(The last time you saw me)
That you only saw the back of my head
Climb through the timbers
And I’ll breathe the dust of
Cosmos and wild rose bud
Thunder the unknowns
In the phosphorous white glow of
Sabertooth bones in the dusk
Remember me to Roxy Anne
(You know she’s still lovely)
Tell her I was barely there
(The last time you saw me)
That you only saw the back of my head
Southern Pacific take me to meet
Whatever is hunting for me
