- Album:
- Walking Into Clarksdale
When I was born I was running As my feet hit the ground Before I could talk I was humming An old railroad sound Things didn't get much better When by the age of five They found me [caught me] walking into Clarksdale Trying to keep my friends alive No time for celebration Now there's [There was] no known cure Seeing I was born and raised On the wrong killing floor And my loved ones gathered round To see if the experiment had worked I was misplaced, out of time Privileged and worse Oh mama please, don't cry for me Tears to the river - tears to be free Now I see twelve white horses Yeah, walking in line Moving east across the metal bridge On highway forty-nine And standing in the shadows of a burned out motel The king of commerce Mississippi Waiting with his hound [hounds] from hell Oh, a shiny neon riverboat Taking income from the poor It is floating by the levee [It is moored across the mountain] In an artificial pool There's a six-mile tailback back on [out at] junction 304 A stranger at the crossroad I believe I've seen his face before Oh, don't cry for me Tears fill [Tears to] the river - tears to be free I'm sad to be leaving The sun's going down and I've really got to go now Sad to be leaving The sun's going down - I've really got to go now Yeah, really got to go now I've got to go - I've got to move - I've got to move, yeah Sad to be leaving Sun's going down - I've really got to go now Sad to be leaving The sun's going down and I've really got to go now Yeah, really got to go now
