croy and the boys – oh ellie lyrics
[verse 1]
under an open sky
of ghostly light
a man feels like
he ain’t much there
[verse 2]
but it soothes the mind
that through the passing of time
one’s passions and crimes
will turn to air
[chorus]
the sun’s up, baby, and i’m way past gone, like i knew the way
and every town looks the godd+mned same from that bad highway
home looks just as fleeting as that old river bend
it’s just one more place that i’ll never see again
[verse 3]
well, i heard some say
it’s an open plain
that spreads for days
without a care
[verse 4]
and it’s peopled with
a lonesomeness
that once come across
just seems to stare
[chorus]
the sun’s up, baby, and i’m way past gone, like i knew the way
and every town looks the godd+mned same from that bad highway
home looks just as fleeting as that old river bend
it’s just one more place that i’ll never see again
[verse 5]
well, i was past baton rouge
when i heard the news
and knew it true
i’d been displaced
[verse 6]
but then i had the thought
that the dream i’d sought
and believed well+fought
had all been chase
[bridge]
oh, ellie
why you gotta go girl?
oh, ellie
why you gotta go?
i chased your name
i left good men slain
and hardened my case against the world
all in the name
of a long+dead flame
and the angry love of a pretty girl
[chorus]
the sun’s up, baby, and i’m way past gone, like i knew the way
and every town looks the godd+mned same from that bad highway
home looks just as fleeting as that old river bend
it’s just one more place that i’ll never see again
