Dying on the Vine

作词 : Cale
I've been chasing ghosts and 
I don't like it 
I wish someone would show me where to draw the line 
I'd lay down my sword if you would take it 
And tell everyone back home 
I'm doing fine 
I was with you down in 
Acapulco trading clothing for some wine 
Smeling like an old adobe woman 
Or a William 
Burroughs playing for lost time 
I was thinking about my mother 
I was thinking about what's mine 
I was living my life like a holy war 
But I was dying on the vine 
Who could sleep through all that noisy chatter 
The troops, the celebrations in the sun 
The authorities say my papers are all in order 
If I wasn't such a coward, 
I would run 
Meet me when all the shooting's over 
Meet me on the other side of town 
Yes you can bring all your friends for protection 
It's always nice to have them all hanging around 
I was thinking about my mother 
I was thinking about what's mine 
I was living my life like a holy war 
But I was dying, dying on the vine
