[Spoken Intro]
I wanna tell you 'bout Texas Radio and the Big Beat
It comes out of the Virginia swamps, cool and slow
With a back beat narrow and hard to master
[Verse 1]
Some call it heavenly in its brilliance
Others, mean and rueful of the western dream
I love the friends I have gathered together on this thin raft
We've constructed pyramids in honor of our escaping
For this is the land where the Pharaoh die
[Verse 2]
Children, the river contains specimens
The voices of singing women call us on the far shore
And they are saying:
"Forget the night, live with us in forests of azure"
Meager food for souls forgot
[Outro]
I tell you this
No eternal reward will forgive us now for wasting the dawn
And one morning you awoke
And the strange sun
And opening your door...
