Jimmie Rodgers' Dream
Elton John & Leon Russell

I'm lookin' at a funeral wagon rolling down

A two-lane highway winding past a desert town

A big blue canvas painted by the Master's hand

The shifting clouds above and endless miles of sand


In that mirror, maybe that's what's left of me

Wheezing like a freight train hauling sixty tons of steel

Air 'em out's the best release and get some rest

Carrie, don't wait up for me, the brakeman's going West


In this room, all alone I dream of you

In this drawer, I found someone I never knew

Now I pop a top, stay up late with Gideon

Fall asleep to visions of Meridian


I've seen dusty beaten delta boys cuttin' heads

A black face Carney showman scare a song to death

In my short life I've seen as much as most men need

Now I'm just lookin' for some cleaner air to breathe



In this room, all alone I dream of you

In this drawer, I found someone I never knew

Now I pop a top and stay up late with Gideon

And fall asleep to visions of Meridian


Far away, far away

So many years, so many days

All along this broken land

I've seen a lover's empty arms

And hunger's empty hand


In this room, all alone I dream of you

In this drawer, I found someone I never knew

Now I pop a top and stay up late with Gideon

And fall asleep to visions of Meridian
