Elton John - American Triangle |
Elton John Seen him playing in his backyard So much history in this landscape Young boy just starting out So much confusion, so much doubt Been there drinking on that front porch Looks like a painting that blue skyline Angry kids mean and dumb God hates fags where we come from Western skies don't make it right Home of the brave don't make no sense Left to die on a high ridge fence I've seen a scarecrow wrapped in wire It's a cold, cold wind, it's a cold, cold wind It's a cold, cold wind blowing, Wyoming See two coyotes running down a deer You pioneers give us your children Hate what we don't understand But it's your blood that stains their hands Western skies don't make it right Home of the brave don't make no sense I've seen a scarecrow wrapped in wire Left to die on a high ridge fence It's a cold, cold wind, it's a cold, cold wind It's a cold, cold wind blowing, Wyoming To Ignorance and innocence Somewhere that road forks up ahead Three lives drift on different winds Western skies don't make it right Two lives ruined one life spent Home of the brave don't make no sense I've seen a scarecrow wrapped in wire Left to die on a high ridge fence It's a cold, cold wind blowing, Wyoming It's a cold, cold wind, it's a cold, cold wind It's a cold wind blowing, blowing Wyoming It's a cold, cold wind, it's a cold, cold wind |
