"El Camino"

Well to all my friends
That treated me so well
You know I'm headed out
To that mission bell
Gonna wash my soul, gonna get it clean
Headed down the border road called the El Camino

Well I've been a prince
You know I've been opposed
By a barb-wired fence
And a murder of crows
I'm leaving all I've loved
And all I've seen
Headed down the border road called the El Camino
Headed down the border road called the El Camino

Yeah my hearts grown sick
I've got a shepherd's crook as a walking stick
And I'm headed on
Yeah my heart's grown blue
I've done wrong by you
I don't know what to do
And I'm moving on
Yeah, I'm moving on

One and one is two
And two and two is four
I'm walking back and forth

On your cracked-tile kitchen floor
With the orange juice
And the sun that shines
It really breaks my heart
Leaving you behind
It really breaks my heart
Leaving you behind

All my ships have sailed away
The price of this politic
That there's plenty of time to pray
And plenty of time to waste away

Well to all my friends
That I've loved the most
You know I'm headed out
To that other coast
Gonna wash my soul
Gonna get it clean
Headed down the border road called the El Camino
Headed down the border road called the El Camino
