"Western" lyrics

"Western"

Well, I remember Cappadocia
The way the people just approaching ya
The mineral bath, the rolling the dice
Working every day and playing every night

Three special knocks on the door
Some feel I wanted to score
I say, "I don't live here anymore
But I'll gladly take that money off your hands"

The days were blue, the sea was black
A coiled snake that I kept in a sack
I got a dagger and a pill in my hand
There was another world just behind the crack

I've seen that place in a dream
Or a western that I've seen
I've got a storm on my hands now
Riding down to the western lands

I went down to Adelaide
It was the best place I'd ever been
I've got a baby on my head now
Living down by the western lands
