Sauget Wind Songtext
von Uncle Tupelo

It′s a long way to heaven
A short way to hell
Painkillers won't help
When the weight′s not yourself
There's poison in the air
And personal wealth
It's a long way to heaven
A short way to hell

I don′t know what I′m breathing for
'Cause the air around here ain′t so good anymore
The weatherman says fair
He looks like a lie
Nothing's free in this country
And there′s no place to hide
No more


An industrial wind
Blows from the west
It'll burn out your eyes
And suck out your breath
It′s waiting in the wings
A damage down the line
Save your tears for the soaps
And leave your money behind

I don't know what I'm breathing for
′Cause the air around here ain′t so good anymore
The weatherman says fair
He looks like a lie
Nothing's free in this country
And there′s no place to hide
No more
No place to hide
