Red Bandana Blues
Capo 2
Two tied-dyed brain fried misfits who lived in a shack in the back of the bodark Woods
A Caddo guy and a Crockett girl worked hard at staying stoned as best they could
Coming up in the night they were high as a Christmas moon
Coming down was the fear in the four walls of their room
They were two hardcore junkies and they stayed drunker than a bunch of monkeys
There were barrels of laughter with no time left to lose
They had nightmares and needles, with the Stones and the Beatles
they kept all the straight laced businessmen confused
and the days went by with the red bandana blues
Well ivy was grown o'r their heavenly homes
And their only companions were the chickens and the doves
When the law had em' made they got laid in the shade
And their face was the grace from the good lord up above
Making love in the woods was peaceful most of the time
The revolution was the last thing on their minds
They were tough, foul mouthed and lazy, they ate biscuits and gravy
They wore blue bell-bottomed jeans and platform shoes
They slapped at the insects, while they laughed at the rednecks
They kept all the straight laced businessmen confused
And the days went by with the red bandana blues, all right
They wore black suspenders on all day benders
And the world was changing and the kids were running wild
They got grey hairs sat in rocking chairs
And built a great big cradle for a new born flower child
And they never grew up and they never moved to town
But they kind of faded away when the Bodarks got cut down
They had bad luck and good times, cold beer and pork rinds
And the Sunday funnies were the only worthy news
They had nightmares and needles, with the Stones and the Beatles
They kept all the straight laced businessmen confused
Yeah, they were low down and worthless but they were nice on the surface
They got by just fine on whatever they could use
And in trouble they got deeper as they grew their crops of reefer
Because business and pleasure were two words they got confused
And the days went by with the red bandana blues, hey
Blues da Bandana Vermelha
Capo 2
Dois malucos coloridos, com a cabeça frita, que moravam em uma casinha no fundo do bosque de Bodark
Um cara de Caddo e uma garota de Crockett se esforçavam pra ficar chapados o máximo que podiam
Chegando à noite, estavam altos como a lua de Natal
Descer era o medo dentro das quatro paredes do quarto deles
Eram dois viciados hardcore e estavam mais bêbados que um bando de macacos
Havia barris de risadas e nenhum tempo a perder
Tiveram pesadelos e agulhas, com os Stones e os Beatles
Deixavam todos os empresários certinhos confusos
E os dias passavam com o blues da bandana vermelha
Bem, a hera crescia sobre seus lares celestiais
E suas únicas companhias eram as galinhas e os pombos
Quando a polícia os pegou, se esconderam na sombra
E seus rostos eram a graça do bom Senhor lá de cima
Fazer amor no mato era tranquilo na maior parte do tempo
A revolução era a última coisa em suas mentes
Eram durões, boca suja e preguiçosos, comiam biscoitos e molho
Usavam calças boca de sino e sapatos plataforma
Espantavam os insetos, enquanto riam dos caipiras
Deixavam todos os empresários certinhos confusos
E os dias passavam com o blues da bandana vermelha, tudo certo
Usavam suspensórios pretos em dias de bebedeira
E o mundo estava mudando, as crianças estavam soltas
Ficaram com cabelos brancos sentados em cadeiras de balanço
E construíram um grande berço para uma nova criança do amor
E nunca cresceram e nunca se mudaram pra cidade
Mas meio que desapareceram quando os Bodarks foram cortados
Tiveram má sorte e bons momentos, cerveja gelada e torresmo
E as tirinhas de domingo eram a única notícia que valia a pena
Tiveram pesadelos e agulhas, com os Stones e os Beatles
Deixavam todos os empresários certinhos confusos
É, eram desprezíveis e sem valor, mas eram legais na superfície
Se viravam bem com o que podiam usar
E quanto mais se metiam em encrenca, mais cultivavam suas plantações de maconha
Porque negócios e prazer eram duas palavras que confundiam
E os dias passavam com o blues da bandana vermelha, hey
