Shawn Mullins - Twin Rocks Oregon слова песни
I met him on the cliffs of twin rocks oregon he was sittin on his bedroll lookin just like richard brautigan I thought he was an old man he wasn`t but 37 he said he`d been ridin trains for 15 years drawin portraits to keep his belly full of beer and it looked to me like he`d died and missed the plane to heaven but he was a nice ol` guy for a younger man he had a bottle of mad dog he held in his hand that he waved around a lot to make his point and I listened as he told his tales of wine and women and county jails and we finished off that bottle and smoked a half a joint he said "I came here to watch the sun disappear into the ocean it`s been years since I smelled this salty sea" he turned his bottle up and down and I saw him lost and I saw him found he said "I don`t know what i`ve been lookin for,maybe me..." Well, I told him I too had been travelin around livin out of my van from town to town playin for tips and whatever records I could move I said "I don`t reckon i`ll be makin it big, you know it`s hard to get rich off a tout of coffee house gigs" and he said "yeah, but ain`t it a blessin to do what you wanna do..." and I told him "yeah, I pulled off here to watch the sun disappear into the ocean `cause it`s been years since I smelled this salty sea" and he turned his bottle up and down he saw me lost and he saw me found and I said "I don`t know what I`ve been looking for, maybe me" I said "it`s getting kind of late better be heading down the interstate can I give you a lift to san francisco bay?" he said "nope, I think I`m just going to sit here and rest and maybe wait on the tokyo-montana express I might just lay here and dream my life away i`m going to sit right here, i`m going to watch the sun disappear into the ocean `cause it`s been years, it`s been years i`m gonna turn my bottle up and down you can see my lost and you can see my found" I met him on the cliffs of twin rocks, oregon he was sitting on his bedroll looking just like richard brautigan just like him
