Joe Jackson - Wild West Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • Out to the west theres a trail that leads somewhere
  • And a call of the wild that takes some people there
  • Through monument valley to california sun
  • From new amsterdam to the way the west was won
  • Well years will go by when you wont get nowhere
  • Youre cold and youre tired and youre free and you dont care
  • You keep pushin on when your friends keep turning back
  • You keep building towns and laying railroad track
  • And things get crazy and you have to use that sun
  • And you wonder if this is the way the west is won
  • But keep thinkin that way and you wont get nowhere
  • cause you got a right just to get where youre goin to
  • Gotta keep runnin gotta be the best
  • Gotta walk tall in the wild west
  • You keep on the move or you try to settle down
  • And theres strangers from further and further away in town
  • And you give them some tools and they know what must be done
  • And you know the west was won
  • And they say . . .
  • Where I come from, you cant get nowhere
  • Im breaking my back for some opportunity
  • Making my fortune and Ill take it all home
  • Tell my kids about the wild west
  • And theres still beauty as the flowers bloom on desert sands
  • And theres still hope as the sun rises over the rio grande
  • But its so crowded now and nothings simple anymore
  • And theyre still knocking at your door
  • You hear guns in the night and you hope theyre not for you
  • cause a dog eats a dog then he eats his master too
  • In the land of the free and the not so often brave
  • Theres both love or money now choose which you will save
  • But . . . keep thinkin that way and you wont get nowhere
  • cause you got a right just to get where youre goin to
  • Gotta keep runnin gotta be the best
  • Gotta walk tall in the wild west
