Southern Pacifica - Josh Ritter

Southern pacific

Red, white, and blue

Where are we running to?

Over the wide plains

Over the wide plains

Take me to someplace new

Remember me Roxy Anne

You know she’s still lovely

Tell her I was on the move

The last time you saw me That you only saw the back of my head

Climb through the timbers

And I’ll breath the dust

Of cosmos and wild rose bud

And thunder the unknowns

In the phosphorous white glow

Of saber-tooth bones in the dusk

Remember me Roxy Anne

You know she’s still lovely

Tell her I was on the move

The last time you saw me That you only saw the back of my head

Remember me Roxy Anne

You know she’s still lovely

Tell her I was barely there

The last time you saw me That you only saw the back of my head

Southern pacific

Take me to meet

Whatever is hunting

For me
