Out on a range in a season too soon

No electric light up in my room

With a dark skin woman I'm naked and sane

You could learn about the world in an afternoon

The bordertown shook my hand

It was the gateway to some other land

The bordertown is the great divide

Just the gateway to some other side

I got to get across

Now some folks live in the trailer park

With the Naugahyde law and the liquor shark

Where the networks and the new machine

They don't even try to make no mark

The bordertown shook my hand

It was the gateway to some other land

The bordertown is the great divide

Just the gateway to some other side

I got to get across

When you came round I loved you well

When you got paid it was harder to tell

Now I got no grind with cruel gold

I'm just sitting 'round wondering what next to sell

The bordertown shook my hand

It was the gateway to some other land

The bordertown is the great divide

Just the gateway to some other side

The bordertown shook my hand

It was the gateway to some other land

I got to get across
