lirik lagu deacon blues – bill callahan & bonnie “prince” billy
[verse 1]
this is the day of the expanding man
that shape is my shade there where i used to stand
it seems like only yesterday i gazed through the glass
at ramblers, wild gamblers, that’s all in the past
[verse 2]
you call me a fool, you say it’s a crazy scheme
this one’s for real, i already bought the dream
so useless to ask me why, throw a kiss and say goodbye
i’ll make it this time, i’m ready to cross that fine line
[chorus]
i’ll learn to work the saxophone
i’ll play just what i feel
and drink scotch whiskey all night long
and die behind the wheel
they got a name for the winners in the world
i want a name when i lose
they call alabama the crimson tide
call me deacon blues (deacon blues)
[verse 3]
my back to the wall, a victim of laughing chance
this is for me, the essence of true romance
sharing the things we know and love with those of my kind
libations, sensations that stagger the mind
[verse 4]
i crawl like a viper through these suburban streets
make love to these women, languid and bittersweet
i’ll rise when the sun goes down, cover every game in town
a world of my own, i’ll make it my home sweet home
[chorus]
i’ll learn to work the saxophone
i’ll play just what i feel
and drink scotch whiskey all night long
and die behind the wheel
they got a name for the winners in the world
i want a name when i lose
they call alabama the crimson tide
call me deacon blues (deacon blues)
[verse 5]
this is the night of the expanding man
i take one last drag as i approach the stand
i cried when i wrote this song, sue me if i play too long
this brother is free, i’ll be what i want to be
[chorus]
i’ll learn to work the saxophone
i’ll play just what i feel
and drink scotch whiskey all night long
and die behind the wheel
they got a name for the winners in the world
i want a name when i lose
they call alabama the crimson tide
call me deacon blues (deacon blues)
