Lenora’s Ghost
Oh it’ll rain down in Texas
And that red clay
You can’t wash it off your shoes
And when it comes to those old memories
There are so many
That are better off unused
And still Lenora’s Ghost it haunts me
Down dark alleyways
Where my mind’s afraid to go
And now you say that you have seen her
Well rambler, wont you stop
And talk with me awhile
–Chorus–
Well did she have that cross on her back
And did she drag it down main street
Did her Lucky Strike smoke
Burn your eyes
Were there snakes in your head
As you stood beside her bed
Asking good lord, what am I doing here
Talk to me
Talk to me
——
Northbound Oklahoma highways
Are the straightest roads
I’ve believe I’ve ever seen
I am a stranger to this open land
Oh and man it all
It looks the same to me
Miles and miles of wheat fields
Tumble weeds
And all them Cherokee
And now an old friend from out of nowhere
Wont you rest yourself
And talk with me awhile
(Chorus)
