Karaoké Return of the Grievous Angel Gram Parsons feat. Emmylou Harris

Won't you scratch my itch sweet Annie Rich and welcome me back to town

Come out on your porch or step into your parlor and then I'll tell you how it all went down

Out with the truckers

Out with the truckers and the kickers and the kickers and the cowboy angels and the cowboy angels

And a good saloon

And a good saloon in every single town in every single town

Oh and I remember somethin' you once told me and I'll be damned if it did not come true

Twenty thousand roads

I went down, down, down

Twenty thousand roads

I went down, down, down and they all lead me straight back home to you and they all lead me straight back home to you

'Cos I headed west to grow up

'Cos I headed west to grow up with the country with the country

Across those prairies with

Across those prairies with those waves of grain those waves of grain

And I saw my devil

And I saw my devil

And I saw my deep blue sea

And I saw my deep blue sea

And I thought about a calico bonnet from Cheyenne to Tennessee

We flew straight across that river bridge

We flew straight across that river bridge last night half past two last night half past two

The switchman waved his lantern goodbye and good day

Switchman waved his lantern goodbye and good day as we went rollin' through

We went rollin' through

Billboards and truck stops passed by the grievous angel and now I know just what I have to do

Pick it for me James

And the man on the radio

And the man on the radio won't leave me alone won't leave me alone

He wants to take my money for somethin' that

He wants to take my money for somethin' that

I've never been shown

I've never been shown

And I saw my devil

And I saw my devil

And I saw my deep blue sea

And I saw my deep blue sea

And I thought about a calico bonnet from Cheyenne to Tennessee

The news I could bring

I met up with the king

The news I could bring

I met up with the king

On his head an amphetamine crown

On his head an amphetamine crown

He talked about unbucklin' that old bible belt

Talked about unbucklin' that old bible belt and lighted out for some desert town and lighted out for some desert town

Out with the truckers and the kickers

Out with the truckers and the kickers and the cowboy angels and the cowboy angels

And a good saloon

And a good saloon in every single town in every single town

Oh but I remembered somethin' you once told me and I'll be damned if it did not come true

Twenty thousand roads

I went down, down, down

Twenty thousand roads

I went down, down, down and they all lead me straight back home to you

They all lead me straight back home to you

Twenty thousand roads

I went down, down, down

Twenty thousand roads

I went down, down, down and they all lead me straight back home to you

They all lead me straight back home to you
