Dusty Songtext
von Fred Eaglesmith

Across the mesa, the daylight shines
In your eyes and it makes you blind
And in your head the sirens wail
They just let you out of jail

You′re just dusty now, there's flies on you
Your guns are rusty and your soul is too
The Texas is wearing off of your leather boots
And you′re just dusty, there's flies on you


And there's tobacco inside your cuffs
And you drink too much, but it′s never enough
People stare at you as you stand and cough
Might be the weather, might be the dust

And you′re just dusty now, there's flies on you
Your guns are rusty and your soul is too
The Texas is wearing off of your leather boots
And you′re just dusty, there's flies on you

Rain, rain, rain in a western sky
Teardrops in your heart and gravel in your eye

And you′re just dusty now, there's flies on you
Your guns are rusty and your soul is too
The Texas is wearing off of your leather boots
And you′re just dusty, there's flies on you

You're just dusty, there′s flies on you
