somber sombrero



underneath the stars and the pale moon glow
exactly where he don't know
but he was born in some old pueblo
and grew up on a farm where the corn don't grow

somber sombrero what gets you so low?
somber sombrero says i dont know

he couldnt find work so he knew he had to go
then walked across barefoot cuz he was so poor
then he worked a few years for a guy named Joe
but still had ten dirty toes

somber sombrero what gets you so low?
somber sombrero says i dont know

he picks up a bottle at the liquor store
has a few drinks then walks some more
he says living on the earth can torment your soul
but at least he says the rent is low

somber sombrero what gets you so low?
somber sombrero says i dont know
somber sombrero where will you go?
somber sombrero says wherever the wind blows..
