Clay Pigeons (By Blaze Foley) Songtext
von Tim Barry

Im goin′ down to the greyhound station
Im gonna get a ticket to ride
Gonna find that lady with two or three kids
And sit down by her side
Ride around 'til the sun comes up and down around two or three times
Drinkin whiskey in the last seat tryin to hide my sorrow from the people I meet.
And get along with it all.
Go where the people say "y′all".
Sing a song with a friend.
Change the shape that I'm in.
And get back in the game and start playin' again.
I′d like to stay but I might have to go to start over again.
I might go back down to Texas, I might go to somewhere that I′ve never been.
I'll get up in the mornin′ and go out at night.
I wont have to go home
Get used to bein' alone.
Change the words to this song, and start singin′ again.


Tired of runnin' ′round lookin' for answers that I already know.
I could build me a castle of memories just to have somewhere to go.
Count the days and the nights that it takes to get back in the saddle again.
Feed the Pigeons some clay.
Turn the night into day.
Start talkin' again.
When I know what to say.
Im goin′ down to the greyhound station
Im gonna get a ticket to ride
Gonna find that lady with two or three kids
And sit down by her side
Ride around ′til the sun comes up and down round two or three times
Smokin' cigarettes in the last seat tryin to hide my sorrow from the people I meet.
And get along with it all.
Go where the people say "y′all"
Feed the pigeons some clay, turn the night into day
And start talkin' again when I know what to say
