Out Among The Stars - Merle Haggard
It's midnight at a liquor store in Texas
Beneath the neon
Close up's just begun
When a boy walks in the door
And points a pistol
He can't find a job but man
He's found a gun
But a change of heart before
There's confrontation
Lets the old man live
And run out in the street
But he knows that soon
They'll come with guns a blazing
And already he can feel a great relief
Oh how many travelers get weary
Bearing both their
Burdens and their scars
Don't you think they'd
Love to stop complaining
And fly like eagles
Out among the stars
He pictures the arrival of the cruisers
Sees that old familiar
Anger in their eyes
He knows that when
They're shooting at this loser
They'll be aiming at
The demons in their lives
Oh how many travelers get weary
Bearing both their burdens
And their scars
Don't you think they'd
Love to stop complaining
And fly like eagles
Out among the stars
The evening news
It carries all the details
He dies in every living room in town
And in his home
A bottle's thrown in anger
And his father cries
"We'll never live this down"
Oh how many travelers get weary
Bearing both their
Burdens and their scars
Don't you think they'd
Love to stop complaining
And fly like eagles out among the stars
Oh oh
And fly like eagles out among the stars
