Elton John feat. Leon Russell - Jimmie Rodgers' Dream текст песни

[Elton John:]
I'm looking at a funeral
wagon rollin' down,
A two-lane highway winding
past a desert town,
A big blue canvas painted
by the Master's hand,
The shifting clouds above
and endless miles of sand

[Leon Russell:]
In that mirror maybe
that's what's left of me,
Wheezing like a freight train
hauling sixty tons of steel,
Air ‘em out's the best release
and get some rest,
Carrie don't wait up for me
the brakeman's goin' West

[Elton John and Leon Russell together:]
In this room all alone
I dream of you,
In this drawer I found
someone I never knew,
Now I pop a top and
stay up late with Gideon,
And fall asleep to visions
of Meridian

[Elton John:]
I've seen dusty beaten
delta boys cutting heads,
A black face carney showman
scare a song to death,
In my short life I've seen
as much as most men need,
Now I'm just looking for
some cleaner air to breathe

[Elton John and Leon Russell together:]
Far away, far away,
So many years, so many days,
All along this broken land,
I've seen a lover's empty arms,
And hunger's empty hand
