Leave Those Memories Alone

Over a cocaine rainbow, the world is at her command
Over a cocaine rainbow, the world is at her command
And just like Judas, in a pocket she hides her right hand
Behind the rhinestone curtain, the charlatan's vines and her muse
Behind the rhinestone curtain, the charlatan's vines and her muse
Be careful of a woman who sees her future in you

And even if the sun and the moon never shone
Love would be the brightest light in my home
It's time for you to go out and make some new memories
Of your own
You can dig up every bone
Momma, come on
Leave those memories alone

It's been a long time sugar and I'm sure glad to see your face
Yeah, it's been a long time sugar and I'm sure glad to see your face
Outside, out in the wilderness, all I need is a taste
Oh, and the colonel was tall and he always wore his hat and shades
Yeah, well the colonel and he always wore his hat and shades
Wore his heart like a diamond, rolled off on the ace of spades, yeah

And even if the sun and the moon never shone
Love would be the brightest light in our home
It's time for you to go out and make some new memories
Of your own
You can dig up every bone
Of a rolling stone
Yeah, you can dig up every bone
But momma, come on
Leave those memories alone

I miss you, brother
Sometimes it's so hard

Will they remember the words to my songs when I'm dead and gone?
Will they remember the words to my songs when I'm dead and gone?
While I'm here, I can't remember the words to my own songs
