Robbie Robertson - Somewhere Down The Crazy River Lyrics
Yea, I can see it nowThe distant red neon shivered in the heatI was feeling like a stranger in a strange landYou know where people play games with the nightGod, it was too hot to sleepI followed the sound of a jukebox coming from a leveeAll of a sudden I could hear somebody whistlingFromright behind meI turned around and she said"Why do you always end up down at Nick's Cafe?"I said "I don't know, the wind just kind of pushed me this way."She said "Hang the rich."Catch the blue train To places never been beforeLook for me Somewhere down the crazy river Somewhere down the crazy riverCatch the blue train All the way to KokomoYou can find me Somewhere down the crazy river Somewhere down the crazy riverTake a picture of thisThe fields are empty, abandoned '59 ChevyLaying in the back seat listening to Little Willie JohnYea, that's when time stood stillYou know, I think I'm gonna go down to Madam XAnd let her read my mindShe said "That Voodoo stuff don't do nothing for me."I'm a man with a clear destinationI'm a man with a broad imaginationYou fog the mind, you stir the soulI can't find, ... no controlCatch the blue train To places never been beforeLook for me Somewhere down the crazy river Somewhere down the crazy riverCatch the blue train All the way to KokomoYou can find me Somewhere down the crazy river Somewhere down the crazy riverWait, did you hear thatOh this is sure stirring up some ghosts for meShe said "There's one thing you've got to learnIs not to be afraid of it."I said "No, I like it, I like it, it's good."She said "You like it nowBut you'll learn to love is later."I been spellbound - falling in trancesI been spellbound - falling in trancesYou give me shivers - chills and feverI been spellbound - somewhere down the crazy river
