Blood On The Tracks Lyrics

Salt pines out in front of you

tears running down your cheeks

you look out across that frozen land

holding on to everything you knew

You cast a shadow across that hardened soil

whisky husks are in the wind

this land is tired and broken

as you breathe in the air l

Take a trip to somewhere new

find that shiny dime

forget up what’s making you blue

even for a just little while

There is blood in the tracks and bones beyond the fence

your mom is buried and she’s gone

way past that tree you planted for pa

is the road that’s calling you all night long

its true your family has been here a long long time

18 dogs have come and dug the soil

but what’s a boy to do when the road calls out

and you here that song from beyond….

Take a trip to somewhere new

find that shiny dime

give up what’s making you blue

if only for a little while
