Текст песни: Mineral Wells + перевод

In '81 I was just a drink

On the shelf, a daiquiri

Not even a thought

Until sometime in July

Sometime in July

And something happened in '84

I ended up with two places to be from

The only tree with leaves in Lubbock

With roots in Mineral Wells

Mineral Wells

At night I dream I’m in the Brazos River

Pines and cypress of the West Cross Timbers

And oh, I know, it shows

I’m another one still thirsting for my home

There’s a spot under the train track trestles

The water’s too deep to stand in

And you were there once…

We climb the sandstone and jump in

«Hold your breath and jump in.»

We take the airboats way upstream

The heat’s tiring and I fall asleep

In my folding chair

I dreamed Dad was smoking cigarettes

He always had one hanging from his lips

At night I dream I’m in the Brazos River

Pines and cypress of the West Cross Timbers

And oh, I know, it shows

I’m another one still thirsting for my home

I’ve tried drinking water from the Gibson well

Folks before me say, «it cures what ails ya.»

I think it might be true

That there’s something in the well

In Mineral Wells

And at night I dream I’m in the Brazos River

Pines and cypress of the West Cross Timbers

And oh, I know, it shows

I’m another one still searchin' for my home
