Oregon - Galactic Cowboys

Down from the mountains word would come

We would soon move to Oregon

Pulled from the ground of yesterday

Sell everything and move away

But it wasn’t what we thought

And we rode the horse that Bud bought

We took that trip again, my friend

Ten of us formed a family

Jimmy and Jesus under siege

Follow the leader it would go

Stuck in a twisted puppet show

But it wasn’t what we thought

And we rode the horse that Bud bought

We took that trip again, my friend

But it wasn’t all for naught

Living in the house that Bud bought

We learned so very much back then

It was a burning bush of hungry souls

Trying to follow what our hearts were told

But a novice played upon our fears

And the whole thing screwed us up for years

We untied a holy knot

And we rode the horse that Bud bought

Prophecy came and we were gone

We would soon move from Oregon

Turning their backs on yesterday

Some of the others fell away…
