I wrote this back in '85, and forgot about it. It's a lousy vocal. grin

Rio Grande

©1985 Robert Randall Burke


He's got a girl in Texas
Tells her he'll be comin' home soon
But the bright lights of the city
Took much more than they had to.

Help me darlin'
I'm sleepin' in the subways
And I just don't understand
Livin' in Manhattan
Longin' for the Rio Grande.

Well, the jobs, they don't come easy
When there's a hundred more in front of you
And he's dreamin' of the country
Where a man can do what he wants to.

Thinkin' of a girl
Standin' down by the river
With a flower in her hand
Livin' in Manhattan
Longin' for the Rio Grande

He's got a girl in Texas
Tells her he'll be comin' home soon
But the bright lights of the city
Took much more than they had to.

Thinkin' of a girl
Standin' down by the river
Lord, I hope she understands
Livin' in Manhattan
Longin' for the Rio Grande
Livin' in Manhattan
Longin' for the Rio Grande
