Alamo - Tori Amos

Alamo

Heard all about your fandango

Banged on my knees

On your bay door

Only to wake you

To blues on the way

Blues on the way

Blues on the way

Embarcadere

Figures you’ll see me as older

Twenty-three hours till the border

Don’t think I’ll be going

As fast as I came

Fast as I came

Fast as I came

Tears on my pillow

Of course they’re not mine

Alter that altar

Make it a play

Somebody invent the telephone line

I’ll take my chances

Alamo

Wish I could do what God does

Heard that the stars were in order

God you served out a hand

With two queen of spades

And blues on the way

Blues on the way

Tears on my pillow

Of course they’re not mine

Alter that altar

Make it a play

Somebody just

Somebody invent the telephone line

I’ll take my chances
