San Antonio Lyrics by The Stray Birds

Best Medicine

0

Spent a little time at the Alamo mission
With the Spanish and the dogs on the street
I felt alright just sitting there wishing
You might find yourself among the likes of these
When you arrive come share the vision
Find a place to live outside of poverty
Guess you can try to be forgiven
Come shed the weight of the things you've seen
Whoa the weight of what you've seen
Spanish cries from the back of a mission in San Antone
Sleeping in a fifteen dollar room, I got a bed to spare
A child's eyes break water on a desert dry as bone
Whoa San Antone
San Antonio
You just might find whatever you're missing
A little bit of love in a place you ought to be
Water or wine, however you're living
Lights of the city, and a river to the sea
Lights of the city, a river to the sea
Out on the street
With holes in the shoes on his feet
If a saint walked by
You wouldn't even know his name
Love her or leave her, it's all the same
You got to go my friend, that's alright
But don't be surprised when she calls your name
Asking you to stay another night
Oh one more night
