Shane Smith & the Saints - Nights of Austin lyrics

Artist: Shane Smith & the Saints

album: Coast


I look out to them storage sheds from a Hills Cafe Sign
And wait out for the mariachi bands, they practice in the night
They ain't got no power you know, them sheds got a one single light
But two fifty-foot extensions gonna make everything alright
And so they play, they play
We get pretty good rain out here, you know, every once in a while
A great big blue Northern sings in like a Chris Ledoux lullaby
It ain't like old Spofford where that dry air makes the lightning flash
So bright
We'd wait for the fires
Cause these nights of Austin
Just fade in and out
It's like I've never seen no daylight in this town.
Hill Country rain falls, on sweet southern ground
And when I finally see daylight in this town
I'm washed away
And look out to the skyline from Riverside Drive
One of them buildings stares back at you like a barn owl in the skies
Sixth street and old Neches for a cigarette, a good friend of mine, he'll sing Neil Young
He puts on a smile and closes his eyes and he sings
"Hey hey, my my. Rock n' Roll never dies"
Cause these nights of Austin
Just fade in and out
Like I've never seen no daylight in this town
The street poet plays his, his sweet southern sound
And when I finally see daylight in this town
I'm washed away.
Cause these nights of austin
Just fade in and out
It's like I've never seen no daylight in this town
