How The West Was Won Lyrics - 2003

[ Buy How The West Was Won ]

(spoken-This is goin to be Goin to California)
Spend my days with a woman unkind
Smoked my stuff and drank all my wine
Made up my mind, make a new start
I'm Going to California with an aching in my heart
Someone told me there's a girl out there
With love in her eyes and flowers in her hair
(spoken-I didnt see to many this time)

Took my chances on a big jet plane
Never let 'em tell you that they all are the same
Hoh, the sea was red and the sky was grey
I wondered how tomorrow could ever follow today
The mountains and the canyons started to tremble and shake
As the children of the sun began to awake, watch out

Seems like that the wrath of the Gods
Got a punch on the nose and it started to flow
I think I might be sinking
Throw me a line if I reach it in time
I'll see you up there where the path
Runs straight and high

To find a queen without a king,
They say she plays guitar, and cries, and she sings
Ride a white mare in the footsteps of dawn,
Try to find a woman who's never, never, never, been born
Standin on a hill in the mountain of dreams,
Tellin myself its not as hard, hard, hard as it seems, ooh

(spoken-Sure is hard)

Oh, it's hard
