[Verse 1: Townes Van Zandt]
Well, the clouds didn't look like cotton
They didn't even look like clouds
I was underneath the weather
All my friends looked a crowd
Well the swimmin' hole was full of rum
And I tried to find out why
All I learned was this my friend
You got to swim before you fly
[Chorus: Townes Van Zandt and Doug Sahm]
I got two girls
One's in heaven, one's below
One I love with all my heart
And one I do not know
[Verse 2: Doug Sahm]
Two lonesome dudes on a ugly horse
Passed by not long ago
They asked me where the action was
I said that I don't know
As they disappeared into the brush
I heard the driver say
He's a little slow between the ears
He's always been that way
Well, the clouds didn't look like cotton
They didn't even look like clouds
I was underneath the weather
All my friends looked a crowd
Well the swimmin' hole was full of rum
And I tried to find out why
All I learned was this my friend
You got to swim before you fly
[Chorus: Townes Van Zandt and Doug Sahm]
I got two girls
One's in heaven, one's below
One I love with all my heart
And one I do not know
[Verse 2: Doug Sahm]
Two lonesome dudes on a ugly horse
Passed by not long ago
They asked me where the action was
I said that I don't know
As they disappeared into the brush
I heard the driver say
He's a little slow between the ears
He's always been that way
