Just the night birds and the drinkers remain Early morning showdown at the imaginary saloon Cowboys and Cowgirls Junkies and beggars The lonely and the desired The hungry still get their fill They'll let you smoke your smoke Once they lock the door And when they dim the lights Hell, they'll let you have a piece of the surprise If you like Howlin' Wolf shadow boxes in the jukebox On the other end of the ring And Betty Lou has a new pair of blues That she'll let you wear But only if you love her Until the sun holds her unselfishly Same town with a different name The ballerinas are doing the twist High off of that Tennessee sour mash Getting dirty in the dance hall They drop their heroes For the aimless wanderers The hitchhikers The adventure igniters The pale horse and its riders Maybe tomorrow or maybe today Maybe the next set of lights The flattop skids along the fresh summer asphalt Ribbons fly and fall from strawberry curls In a Chevy Bel Air And the drunks sing their lullabies They sing, they sing those lullabies They sing them to the tune of “This Land Is Your Land” And well, I believe it is I believe it is I believe it is
