Saddle In The Rain Lyrics

I wish, I hope, I wonder, where you're at sometimes

Is your back against the wall or just across the line?

Have you been standing in the rain reciting nursery rhymes?

Trying to recall some long lost kind of peace of mind

Peace of mind

Try spending the night sometime

All alone in a frozen room

After neath you've lain

Your saddle in the rain

I dreamed they locked god up down in my basement

And he waited there for me to have this accident

So he could drink my wine and eat me like a Sacrament

And I just stood there like I do then I came and went

I came and went

Like a bird in a foreign sky

Couldn't even say goodbye

Or come and share the pain

My saddle's in the rain

I saw a friend who doesn't know if I'm his friend just yet

His eyes and mouth were widely open and his jaw was set

Like he'd fell off a cliff and hadn't hit the bottom yet

I wish he wouldn't pull those things on me without a net

Without a net

I had him up to the house one time

And we was having a real good time

Then he went and lain

His saddle in the rain

In a laundromat not too far from the Alamo

Sits a girl who stole my records very long ago

And she wishes, wants and washes out those dirty clothes

As she shuts her eyes and dreams about her one eyed Joe

One eyed Joe

Car parked on a dirty road

Heaven knows the load she pulled

Couldn't take the strain

A saddle in the rain
