SALMON
(Copyright © 2007 Andy Oglesby)
Conversation only made you thirsty
You said something ‘bout the river and you left town
Take the compass that I gave you last year
Your books and your guns
All that you hold dear
The Salmon is the river of no return
Oooohhh . . .
Don’t try to remember everything
Just watch out for cheap vodkas on your way to bed
Don’t carry no torches
Just burn road signs and bridges instead
The Salmon is the river of no return
Oooohhh . . .
Nobody here has an answer
‘Least nobody talkin’ to me
Try and appreciate a real situation
A man could go thirsty from dry conversation
The Salmon is the river of no return
Oooohhh . . .
