carson jeffrey - hotel paisano lyrics

[verse]
well i’m sittin’ in the lobby of the paisano
drinkin’ my fine wine
starin’ at the dead ranchers
who used to run this town
they got run off by bankers
and big city artists
who won their war with top dollar and paint brushes

well this world turned bad when they ran
the cows and sheep out the land
and drilled another water well
and stretched up another fence
well they say there’s nothing there
they just never got out of the truck
you gotta get off highway 90
and walk through the sage brush

[chorus]
when thе wind blows in west texas
i can’t help but cry
i pray it blows thе rich man away
and takes his sins down the line
well i know they say the good days
have all but come to an end
so tonight i’ll sit in the paisano
and remember when

[verse]
well the old have all died and passed it on
and the kids will just sell it off
for a stack of greens in their pocket
and a big ol’ pad up in north san antone
well their daddies bled and died for the land, they’ll never even know
what it took to buy it for a dollar
now that acre’s as good as gone

[chorus]
when the wind blows in west texas
i can’t help but cry
i pray it blows the rich man away
and takes his sins down the line
well i know they say the good days
have all but come to an end
so tonight i’ll sit in the paisano
and remember when
[bridge]
well i don’t mean to sound so hard
i’m just tired of seeing it go down
’cause once it’s gone, it’s gone
there ain’t no bringing the land back around

[chorus]
when the wind blows in west texas, i can’t help but cry
i pray it blows the rich man away and takes his sins down the line
well i know they say the good days have all but come to an end
so tonight i’ll sit in the paisano and remember when

i’ll remember when
