about

(c) 2014 Nigel Spencer words and music
recorded November 23 - December 7 2014
at Anvil 2 Studio, South Willingham

lyrics

towards the Chisholm Trail
somewhere near Waco
for a hard days pay
out from San Antonio
Red River Crossing
longhorns headed for a train

mustangs spread out wide
grazing hard to find
not on any map
carried in your heart and mind
t'wards the Kansas railhead
cattle men wishing for some rain

and Jesse poured another drink
just as the sun was going down
as the owner of the store pulled up the shade
the thunder of the hooves
outside dusty window panes
by the thousand
a trading post for the cavalcade

never one for talk
kept things to himself
beneath the midday sun
cracked earth and a trail so long
and the years they stole their time
and living came harder now to find

and Jesse poured another drink
just as the sun was going down
as the owner of the store pulled up the shade
the thunder of the hooves
outside dusty window panes
by the thousand
a trading post for the cavalcade

as the sun was going down
Jesse poured another drink
and the owner of the store pulled up the shade
the thunder of the hooves
outside dusty window panes
by the thousand
a trading post for the cavalcade
