Downcountry

from Real Ponchos by Real Ponchos

lyrics

Lone mans across the borderline
Wrongs he's done will surely eat him alive
But on everything you can cast your doubts

Sailing ships on the ocean blue
Sail the distance between me and you
Now you know that your life's just a length of time

Blank faces through the same old day
You know I'll know you when you see me again
People cross me and they get out of the way

Plough a field down a one way street
Snowball in the desert heat
I got fingers where my eyes should be

Down country
Down country
High country
Down country

Palm trees and a rusty mirror
Buzzards floating on the tropical air
Dogs howlin' as the full moon stares

Things are real when they become clear to you
Things are real when they disappear from view
Before you can even make a move

Down country
Down country
High country
Down country
