Dublin Blues

(앨범: The Highway Kind - 1997)

I wish I was in Austin
In the Chili Parlour Bar
Drinking Mad Dog Margaritas
And not caring where you are

But here I sit in Dublin
Just rolling cigarettes
Holding back and choking back
The shakes with every breath

Forgive me all my anger
Forgive me all my faults
There's no need to forgive me
For thinking what I thought
I loved you from the git go
I'll love you till I die
I loved you on the Spanish steps
The day you said goodbye

I am just a poor boy
Work's my middle name
If money was a reason
I would not be the same

I'll stand up and be counted
I'll face up to the truth
I'll walk away from trouble
But I can't walk away from you

I have been to Fort Worth
I have been to Spain
I have been too proud
To come in out of the rain

I have seen the David
I've seen the Mona Lisa too
I have heard Doc Watson
Play Columbus Stockade Blues
