Lyrics:
and of pain
Full of beauty and desire rushing like the Rio Grande
The late great Townes Van Zandt
I’m pretty sure he saw it coming I bet that he did know
Like
and zydeco bands
I'm like B-side Townes Van Zandt
I'm always speaking my mind
When I'm better off biting my tongue
I'm a bad joke at the wrong time
Hell,
And you wonder what to tell the little woman
Me and the band's up all night long
We was passing the pipe and banging the gong
Trying to remember one of Van
the Old Quarter's had Townes Van Zandt for five nights
We have him for one more night and we're glad to have him here tonight.
Townes Van Zandt.
town.
So I cried "Oh Moses, bring a flood from the Red Red Sea
Bring back Towns Van Zandt and my heroes back to me.
'Cause I can play their songs but
once
She told me something, I forget what it was
Ronny Van Zandt's ghost lives inside of me
But he just sits there
I don't know what he does
I'm
something once
She told me something, I forget what it was
Ronny Van Zandt's ghost lives inside of me
But he just sits there
I don't know what he does
Wallace, Bear Bryant, and Ronnie Van Zandt.
Now, Ronnie Van Zandt wasn't from Alabama, he was from Florida.
He was a huge Neil Young fan.
But, in
Townes Van Zandt, Zeppelin, Lynyrd Skynyrd
Harry Chapin, Guy Clark and Van Halen
I got Rita, Kris, Keith Sykes and Country Joe when he was singin' with
joined a hippie band
He was directed by gus van zandt
We'd like to think he'd have joined the smartipantz
Co-starred with flea and keanu
We didn't know
that Van Zandt county line
With some old friends of mine
Sipping on that sour mash and wine
We're gonna have ourselves a real good time
With skies
you’ve got everywhere to be but here.
It’s hard to do the show with someone watching
while you try to tell them how you feel inside.
When Townes Van Zandt
Life without Susanna started when Townes Van Zandt died
From that day on she hid out undercover
Her Percocet and cigarette along for the ride
tight-rope-walker who called herself the queen of Poughkeepsie
Who ran away from the circus with some roustabout redneck gypsy
They were Townes Van Zandt fans
friends Fit's
Of Depression to play with us
At The Seattle Coliseum
Or playing with Poison Idea at a No On Nine
Benefit in Portland organzied by
Gus Van
By Townes Van Zandt
I'll play upon my violin
Until the mountains ring
Of lonely laughter blindly thrown
And cause an endless sark of strings
hat and silver skates
Jugglin' three collection plates Jesus Christ
Townes Van Zandt standin' at the bar
Skinnin' a Hollywood movie star
Can't
'T herdenken van zijn wapenfeiten
Is voor de mens een aardig feest
Met vlaggen wimpels en banieren
En goeie nationale geest
De leste man no
loud
Daddy was a rockstar ridin' on a tractor, listenin' to Townes Van Zandt
I was five years old with a hairbrush microphone, growin' up in Radioland
heb
En bij de ander ben ik het niet waard om de riemen van zijn sandalen los te maken
Een bittere pil voor Philip Nitschke
Je wil eruit, maar ja, daar
groet en 'n vraag oor jou gesig
Struikel jy steeds aan die ander kant
Sê groete vir ou Louis en vir Paul van der Zandt
rant and recant
If I put on any records
It’ll be Townes Van Zandt
Cause tonight, you can’t make me dance
Ain’t gonna go to no club
Under no circumstance
Van Zandt groupies, guitar slingers
Hallelujah gospel singers
Freight-train mamas, pistol shooters
My first girlfriend works at Hooters
Beans
at least half alright
Sitting on the porch playing Townes Van Zandt play guitar to burn off the hours
'Til we climb the fences at the edge of town
