matt cox - palace of the sun lyrics
billy came down from houston
with a suitcase and a gun
across the rio grande
no one really knew what he done
he was the father of five children
but, they say that his first born son
took a bullet in afghanistan
on the day he turned twenty-one
goodbye rosie
rosie goodbye i’ve gotta run
boys around the table
are pulling out big guns
via con dios
i’ll meet you at the palace of the sun
on a beach near playa del carmen
there sat rosie one afternoon
she had skin like spanish leather
and her hair smelled like sweet perfume
in a dirty-lit cantina they called
the palace of the sun
they drank mezcal margaritas
and coconuts full of rum
[chorus]
but, he couldn’t escape the memories
of the life he’d left behind
and they say that a deep depression
swallowed up poor billy’s mind
they found him on a sunday
just before the evening tide
with a bottle in his left hand
and a letter in his right
