Calico Girlfriend Songtext
von Michael Nesmith & The First National Band

Me and my calico girlfriend
Starting a set of new rules
Watching the stars as they drop in
Making the nighttime a fool

Wandering over a roadway
Changing the signs of the times
Looking for love and a new day
Seeing with more than our eyes


Keeper of men and of shadow
Follow us up to the top
Taking the latch off the window
Giving us more than we dropped

Me and my calico girlfriend
Suddenly stare at the face
Of time and its hope that we′ll win
Then softly drop out of the race

Keeper of men and of shadow
Follow us up to the top
Taking the latch off the window
Giving us more than we dropped


Me and my calico girlfriend
Suddenly stare at the face
Of time and its hope that we'll win
Then softly drop out of the race
