Sidewinder Songtext
von Richy Mitch and the Coal Miners

Blown away
A wayward tumbleweed
Guess we all can get fucked over
Guess we all can get set free

Skin sheddin′
Why'd you have to change on me?
Why′d you have to take for granted
All the things you could've been?

And all these hopes I've been hidin′, I′ve been tryin' to fight
I′ve been tearin' my hair out in the heat of the night
Shadow spreadin′ over the valley tonight
You never wanted to lie, I never wanted to die so young

Sidewinder, always chasin' the sun
He′s got a loaded gun
Set right between the finger and thumb
No tellin' from where he's come
Where are you runnin′ from?
What are you runnin′ from?


Just know I'm tryin′, I'm tryin′
To see you, to see you
Just know I'm tryin′, I'm tryin'
To find you, to find you

Ripped away
Like a shout into the breeze
St. Elmo′s fire burnin′
Across the periphery

Stuck in motion
The eternal itch to leave
No tellin' where I would go to
Or what all this really means

And all these knows that I′m findin' or am hopin′ to find
They've been gnawin′ at me, leavin' answers right in front of my eyes
In the ether, sittin' just past my sight
I never wanted to try, but I never wanted to say goodbye

Sidewinder, always chasin′ the sun
Are you comin′ or goin'?
Only findin′ out after you're gone
Never knowin′ when the songs gettin' sung
Where are you runnin′ from?
What are you runnin' from?


Just know I'm tryin′, I′m tryin'
To see you, to see you
Just know I′m tryin', I′m tryin'
To find you, to find you

Just know I′m tryin', I'm tryin′
To see you, to see you
Just know I′m tryin', I′m tryin'
To find you, to find you
