From the recording Long Way 'Round
Lyrics
~ EL NORTE ~
I travel highway one made it to the sun
land between the sea & the cordons
hanging with my tribe moon is shining
high & the earth keeps a turning
Ah ha ah ha ah ha ah el norte
Ah baja sur el Norte
Started nuking in the middle of the night
nearly shook the bus over
surf pounding like a heavy headed hammer
where it meets the shore line
El Norte gallup’s like a run away bull x3
down the sea of cortez
~ Chorus ~
Well the north a wind she moans
she whispers & she wails sad mariners lullaby
& it’s a ancient song calling at your soul
to find & ride & hold her
& the liquid mountains move the deep valleys roll
it’s poseidon’s dance floor
gonna raise my flag high hold it to the sky
carry me across these waters
~ Chorus ~ Bridge & Out ~
