Lyrics
Well I’m almost home, I can see Algodones
Feels like a lifetime, that I’ve been on the road
I been so far gone, and I’m almost home
When I was young, I took to following the sun
up and down the West
Scanning the radio to find myself a home
Soothe the aching in my chest
I pulled to the shoulder, ‘tween Mexico and Boulder
In the desert I found rest
The world seemed older, the air, clean and colder
Slept untroubled and content
Someday, when it’s my turn to die, won’t you lay me down in the sand
in the sagebrush and the stones
I’ll lay and watch the desert sky as I come to my end
let the coyotes take my bones
