lirik lagu look away old friend – sammy walker
sammy walker: “i have a friend in new york city named gordon friesen. this is a song i wrote for him, he’s 79 years old. as a young man, i used to go visit him often and listen to him tell me stories about his growing up in the southwest of oklahoma. look away, old friend.”
[verse 1]
you blew in with a whirlwind of the dustbowl
shook hands with that dark old kansas sky
tell me once again about those nightingale songs
let me see that black old duststorm fly
[chorus]
just look away, out across that lonesome prarie
if you can’t remember every silo, it’s okay
just spin me an old*fashioned oklahoma good time
look away, old friend, look away
[verse 2]
spin me out a rainbow of your travels
travels that havе took you near and far
tell me oncе again about your lifelong love
take me through the heavens to your star
[chorus]
just look away, out across that lonesome prarie
if you can’t remember every silo, it’s okay
just spin me an old*fashioned oklahoma good time
look away, old friend, look away
[verse 3]
you sold the daily worker in detroit city
passed out the truth among the lies
you’ve always had a helping hand a*waitin’
for every hungry kid who dropped by
[verse 4]
so tomorrow i’ll walk uptown on broadway
and ask the same old way, “how you been?”
i’ll pull up that old chair back in the parlor
and ask you for your story once again
[chorus]
just look away, out across that lonesome prarie
if you can’t remember every silo, it’s okay
just spin me an old*fashioned oklahoma good time
look away, old friend, look away
just spin me an old*fashioned oklahoma good time
look away, old friend, look away
