Lyrics
Santa Fe
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
She was sitting in the corner of a cafe
In the burning heart of downtown Santa Fe
Picking on a Gibson and singing "Baby Can't You See"
She was buzzing like a battlefield tracer
She was grinding like gears on a Pacer
I said sister Bloody Mary, won't you do a little number for me?
She said I'll sing you any song that you wanna hear
Just pull up a barstool and buy me another beer
Take me away, take me away from here
Take me far away......Santa Fe......Santa Fe
He was living with some hippies in school bus
They had puttered here from Boulder covered in dust
He said I know a little lady living 30 miles up the road
I got a feeling that my ride aint gonna take me
If I dont see my little lady it will break me
Another 24 hours here, I think I might just explode
I been doing everything I know to try and stay free
Working for the man just aint no kind of plan for me
So take me away, take where I wanna be
Take me far away Santa Fe......Santa Fe......
I'll sing you any song that you wanna hear
It will sound alot better if you have yourself another beer
Take me away, take me away from here
Take me far away Santa Fe......Santa Fe......
