Man Named Truth - Conor Oberst/Gillian Welch/Dave Rawlings Machine

作词:Conor Oberst

Don't ever buy nothin' from a man named truth

Don't ever buy nothin' from a man named truth

Tell you right now that it ain't no use

Don't ever buy nothin' from a man named truth

Pain was a-huntin' me down but I gave him the slip

I left the city through the tunnel

And I headed for the sticks

With oregano oil and a Morethe drip

Pain was hunting me down but I gave him the slip

Then I fell in love with identical twins

They lived 34 summers between the two of them

I gave one my ego I gave one my id

I'm just trying to get back to my pretty little twins

Don't ever buy nothin' from a man named truth

Don't ever buy nothin' from a man named truth

I'll tell you right now that it ain't no use

Don't ever buy nothin' from a man named truth

I was lost for a year in those almond trees

The sun was rising in south and setting in the east

I was half-awake I was half-asleep

I thought I'd never get out of those almond trees

So don't think too slow in the syrupy sun

You get buried alive when you're caught up in the cold

Tapping my time on a congo drum

Don't think too slow in the syrupy sun

I met a black-skinned man with a ice cream grin

And a blond afghan with that heron

We moved to the mountains where the highway ends

I finally got myself that ice cream grin

So don't search too long for that Aztec gold

Like gold Cortez gonna lose your soul

Turn an honest man into Diablo

I wouldn't trade my soul for no Aztec gold

And don't ever buy nothin' from a man named truth

Don't never buy nothin' from a man named truth

Look in my eyes and you see the proof

Don't ever buy nothin' from a man named truth

Don't ever buy nothin' from a man named truth

Don't ever buy nothin' from a man named truth

Don't ever buy nothin' from a man named truth
