Levis and Bibles Songtext

von Mike Peters

Worum geht es in dem Song?

In dem Songtext "Levis and Bibles" von Mike Peters geht es um einen einsamen Reisenden, der auf der Straße unterwegs ist...

Blowin' down a highway in a cadillac
Yellow rose of Texas on a radio band
I don't know where I'm going or when I'm coming back
I heard about a promise in these hard heartlands
There's a lonely hotel in the distance
A tumbleweed shotgun shack
I'm just another lonely rider
On the road to hell and back

Levi's and bibles
Scattered across this land
Scarecrows and crosses
Of promises that turn to dust in my hand
Levi's and bibles

Scattered by a dust storm across a river bed
I'm walking in the shadows of my fathers footsteps
For every crooked dollar a single honest cent
It's hard to be a saint in this world my friend
As the miles stretch out before me
There's another town up ahead
I've got my foot down hard to the metal
And I'm driving straight to hell

Levi's and bibles
Scattered across this land
Scarecrows and crosses
Of promises that turn to dust in my hand
Levi's and bibles

Stand on it
Stand on it and drive
Stand on it
Stand on it and drive

Levi's and bibles
Scattered across this land
Scarecrows and crosses
In a hard heartland
Levi's and bibles
Scattered across this land
Scarecrows and crosses
Of promises that turn to dust in my hand
Levi's and bibles

Stand on it
Stand on it and drive
Stand on it
Stand on it and drive

(Levis and bibles)
(Levis and bibles)
(Levis and bibles)
Levis and bibles
(Levis and bibles)
There scatterered across this land
(Levis and bibles)
Like scarecrows and crosses
(Levis and bibles)
(Levis and bibles)
