Down That Dusty 3'rd World Road

(앨범: Riskin' It All - 1991)

Heart and clock slows down
And the sand reverberates with a tremelous sound
On a diet of water and thick air
I inhale the heat and exhale my share
Barometer's climbing up their scales
Heat shimmers and the horisont sails
I wouldn't know 'bout the governments policy
But the waterhole-water looks like coffee
Time stopped'n'heart slowed

Down that dusty 3'rd world road
Down that dusty 3'rd world road
Down that dusty 3'rd world road
Down-down-down that dusty road
Down-down-down that dusty road
Down that dusty 3'rd world road

A full 20 miles wide
Lies glowing pebbles'n'nothing beside
And man starts to boil
Can't help being born above a lake of oil
The distant battles don't shoot blanks
Soon it's goodbye'n'many tanks
The long shadow used to read like poetry
Now the waterhole-water looks like coffee

Down that dusty 3'rd world road
Down-down-down that dusty road
Down-down-down that dusty 3'rd world road
Down-down-down that dusty road
Down-down-down that dusty 3'rd world road
Down that dusty 3'rd world road
Down-down-down that dusty road
Down that dusty 3'rd world road
Down-down-down that dusty 3'rd world road
Down that dusty 3'rd world road
Down-down-down that dusty 3'rd world road
Walking thick soled
Down-down-down that dusty 3'rd world road
Yeah, down
To the road turns to sand
