Townes Van Zandt Lyrics

"Flying Shoes" lyrics


By townes van zandt
Days full of rainSkys comin' down againI get so tiredOf these same old bluesSame old songBaby, it won't be long'fore I be tyin' onMy flyin' shoesFlyin' shoesTill I be tyin' onMy flyin' shoes
Spring only sighedSummer had to be satisfiedFall is a feelin' that I just can't lose.I'd like to stayMaybe watch a winter dayTurn the green waterTo white and blueFlyin' shoesFlyin' shoesTill I be tyin' onMy flyin' shoes

The mountain moonForever sets too soonBein' alone is all the hills can doAlone and thenHer silver sails againAnd they will followIn their flyin' shoesFlyin' shoesThey will follow in theirFlyin' shoes
Days full of rainSkys comin' down againI get so tiredOf the same old bluesSame old songBaby, it won't be longTill I be tyin' onMy flyin' shoesFlyin' shoesTill I be tyin' onMy flyin' shoes
