Hey Willie

Hey Willie, let’s pack up and catch us a slow train
And go back to Phoenix to a far brighter day
Where stars were for shining in the Arizona sky
And music meant more than fortune or fame
Willie, we wandered from border to border
Singing our stories and living our songs
Seems the farther we go, all that grows closer
Is a mind full of memories we made years ago
Hey Willie, let’s pack up and catch us a slow train
And go back to Phoenix to a far brighter day
Where stars were for shining in the Arizona sky
And music meant more than fortune or fame
We rolled through the towns like a bus load of gypsies
Motels and hotels ain’t no place to stay
The favors we’re taking, the money we’re making
Won’t pay for the living, we’re giving away
Hey Willie, let’s pack up and catch us a slow train
And go back to Phoenix to a far brighter day
Where stars were for shining in the Arizona sky
And music meant more than fortune or fame
