Half Nelson lyrics

Livin on the road my friend, is gonna keep you free and clean

Now you wear your skin like iron

Your breath as hard as kerosene

You weren't your momma's only boy, but her favorite one it seems
She began to cry when you said goodbye

And sank into your dreams

Pancho was a bandit boy, his horse was fast as polished steel

He wore his gun outside his pants

For all the honest world to feel

To all the girls I've loved before
Who travelled in and out my door
I'm
glad they came along
I dedicate this song
To all the girls I've loved
before
To all the girls I once caressed
And may I say I've held the best

For helping me to grow
I owe a lot I know
To all the girls I've
loved before
The winds of change are always blowing
And every time I try
to stay

He looked down into her brown eyes,
Said, " Say a prayer for me."
She threw her arms around him,
Whispered, "God will keep us free."
They could hear the riders comin,
He said, "This is my last fight.
If they take me back to Texas,
They won't take me back alive."

**Chorus**
There were seven Spanish Angels,
At the alter of the Sun.

I'd like to rush into somebody's arms
And lose myself inside
But just any arms won't do
They must belong to you
I'd like to know the soothing comfort
Of a love that never dies
But just any old love won't do
That love must come from you
I've tried so hard to find someone to love
Since I lost you,
But they only make me realize
How much that I need you
I'd like to know when I grow older
