Thirty-Six Miles

Thirty-six miles from Zuni to Gallup
Heaven to hell and in between
Watch those kicks on 66
Booze and trains and lying lips

Thirty-six miles from Zuni to Gallup
Buckskin gloves, a thumb to the wind
Red rock and freezing light
Magic wings and coming night
Shalako, Shalako

Thirty-six miles from Zuni to Gallup
There's blood on this highway
There's love on it too
Keep those tears from soaking through
Shalako, Shalako

Thirty-six miles from Zuni to Gallup
Winter moon is coming on
Dancers pray to bless this place
Zuni thanks on every face
Shalako, Shalako

Thirty-six miles from Zuni to Gallup
The ancient ones don't talk to me
Facing north, I've come apart
A humble guest with an aching heart
Shalako, Shalako, Shalako, Shalako, Shalako
