Buffalo River Home

In the style of

John Hiatt

Lyrics

i've been takin'
off and landin'
but this
airport's closed

and how much thicker
this fog is
gonna get
well god only knows

just when you think
that you've got a grip
reality sneaks off
it gives you the slip

as if you ever
knew what it was
takin' you
down the line

tearin' through
the cotton fields
and bus shelters
of the south runnin'
helter skelter

down through the
mississippi delta
with no place to
call your own

mixin' up drinks
with mixed feelin's
all along the
paint was peelin'

down to an indian
blanket on a pony
with no rider in
the flesh and bone

lookin' for his
buffalo river home

i've been circlin'
the wagons
down at
times square

tryin' to fill up
this hole in my soul
but nothin'
fits there

just when you think
you can let it rip
you're poundin'

the pavement
in your daddy's wingtips
as if you had

someplace else to go
or a better way
to get there

tearin' through
the cotton fields
and bus shelters
of the south runnin'
helter skelter

down through the
mississippi delta
with no place to
call your own

mixin' up drinks
with mixed feelin's
all along the
paint was peelin'

down to an indian
blanket on a pony
with no rider in
the flesh and bone

lookin' for his
buffalo river home

hey ee

now there's only
two things in life
but i forget
what they are
it seems we're

either hangin' on
a moonbeam's coattails
or wishing on stars
just when you think that
you've been gyped

the bearded
lady comes
and does a
double back flip

you run off and
join the circus
yeah you just let
that pony ride

tearin' through
the cotton fields
and bus shelters
of the south runnin'
helter skelter

down through the
mississippi delta
with no place
to call your own

mixin' up drinks
with mixed feelin's
all along the
paint was peelin'

down to an indian
blanket on a pony
with no rider in the
flesh and bone

lookin' for his
buffalo river home
lookin' for his
buffalo river home
