[ti: A Bunch of Lonesome Heros]
[length: 03:18]
[00:05.72]A bunch of lonesome and very quarrelsome heroes
[00:12.28]Were smoking out along the open road
[00:19.58]The night was very dark and thick between them
[00:26.90]Each man beneath his ordinary load
[00:34.90]”I’d like to tell my story”
[00:41.26]Said one of them so young and bold
[00:49.43]”I’d like to tell my story
[00:57.26]Before I turn into gold”
[01:04.93]But no one really could hear him
[01:09.36]The night so dark and thick and green
[01:17.45]Well, I guess that these heroes must always live there
[01:24.78]Where you and I have only been
[01:31.47]Put out your cigarette, my love
[01:39.46]You’ve been alone too long
[01:46.87]And some of us are very hungry now
[01:54.66]To hear what it is you’ve done that was so wrong
[02:00.72]I sing this for the crickets
[02:08.21]I sing this for the army
[02:16.15]I sing this for your children
[02:21.54]And for all who do not need me
[02:28.98]”And I’d like to tell my story”
[02:35.95]Said one of them so bold
[02:43.79]”Oh yes, I’d like to tell my story
[02:50.32]’Cause you know I feel I’m turning into gold”
