Van Dyke Parks - Song Cycle

Public Domain

Our lowly liquor
lobby longs to back a road
to old time songs.

Biblebelts worn from here
and after all were
born in the know.

So rally round awhile
Jim Crow for I thought
I'd like to show
they can recall
the Alamo way down
in old Mexico.

I left Academia
amid sixty-two.
Was it sixty-one scholar
was cooled from the U.
Doubtless more on sore
wing than prayer
I up and just withdrew
to the wander round there.
