Calexico - Fresh Swamp Lyrics






Strange feeling you get
When you cross the switchbacks and bring it on home
Just the farther and farther you drift
Like that old crow, that's beaten and worn
It's been a long day, been a long way
Fly your little wing
Old crow, old crow, battered and worn all your
Feathers
Now you're tattered and torn

All that silver sparkles in your teeth
While it rains in your heart
Swallowed it under, swallowed it down
Gonna take a little sip, gonna meet them boys downtown
Old crow, feeling kinda worn and worn out
Old crow, gonna take a sip, and pass it around, pass

    SONGTEXT :
    Marco's shadow falls on the door
    to the 7 lost cities of gold
    finds a raven's head and rattler's tail
    dead in his tracks, this godforsaken soul's
    unwanted here and his ghost lingers for years

    amalia's face hides behind the mask
    sweating on the tv factory line
    that smile on her face is starting to crack
    while welding back the pieces of shattered heart
    that's scattered out here, with the ghosts of her peers

    searched for her lost love along the river of tears

    at the end of the working week
    when drunken worlds meet
    both sides keeping a close eye
    for a break in the line here...
    on the crystal frontier

    blood spills out on the streets
    and bodies are missing for weeks
    both sides keeping a close eye
    watching the bullets fly here...
    on the crystal frontier

    ramón tightens up his leather belt
    and slips through a hole in the fence
    he can get you anything you want
    might cost you a life, might cost you
    the whole price of freedom here...
    on the crystal frontier

    Marco's shadow falls on the door
    to the 7 lost cities of gold
    finds a raven's head and rattler's tail
    dead in his tracks, this godforsaken soul's

    amalia's face hides behind the mask
    sweating on the tv factory line
    that smile on her face is starting to crack
    while welding back the pieces of shattered heart
    that's scattered out here, with the ghosts of her peers

    absolutely tight, heartfelt, genuinely fantastic lyrics, some of the best music and vocals, nobody overplays it- a weave of worlds, a town so surreal, I been there a few times both sides, Calexico, Mexicali, find both the sweetest of folks and the usual suspects, guess I fit into many worlds, Don Cuco sends his best regards, great job on the video... truly thankful for the lyrics, has me hypnotized with every listen I discover more. the way a tale is told the way the song unfolds, the truth may be under the hood, a new coat of paint, nah- I like the murals. Having my bud and baseball here in Little T, a sunny day, my heart with heavy feel, and hope we do better coz we have too. Price of freedom, everywhere, just right there on the surface in Crystal Frontier, throw in the Ballad of Cable Hogue and oh man, I know these people so well. Have to be here to see here, yet this is a great spyhole, some feel like their only view the portholes of a perpetual Titanic, everyone needs hope. Working for just that. Wish me well. Coz luck's got nothing much to do with it.
