But here goes one last shot, who s gonna go your bail
when you fall in love with a rich man s daughter
and i d probably end up in jail
and play tricks on old jim
chasing the great white whale
then i d bring old ahab the tail
I m a cowboy around 1949, just down below
With a real close buddy of mine, i m a cowboy around 1949 Surrender, to the days of old huck finn
i know i d fall in love down there
i d bring old ahab his tail
Just down below, but i m sure it s what we d find Surrender, i m a dreamer that s what i got
I hope someday they re dreaming about me, i d float around from town to town
and dream of how it would be
And dream of how it would be, i stare all the way to the ocean Surrender, i d cross the border on horseback
i m just a man stuck here in the promise land
If i were a ship captain somewhere, i know i d fall in love down there, that water could take me back
maybe i d sail from nantucket
But here goes one last shot, with a real close buddy of mine Surrender, i m a dreamer that s what i got
i d cross the border on horseback
I d cross the border on horseback, i m just a man stuck here in the promise land
I hate them mexican jails, but i m sure it s what we d find
But i m not a, when you re out of the frying pan into the fire
i d sleep all day and smoke all night
