Shine brightly, my eyes, though the sun it fades golden
And choirs who were once proud and lofty sing quiet
Grow open my heart, know that no man is chosen
Though a crestfallen angel may well hear your cry
There grew in my mind, as I flew back to Nashville
Illusions sublime, of a resurrection homecoming
And then I dropped from the sky, and curled up and died
Down on Broadway
In the Rockabilly music at night, and the blues in the morning
I drew from the wine, ruminations of my human nature
Like the ruins of a man, with my heart in my hand, and the sun in my eyes
The North Georgia wind, was as warm as the whiskey she poured on a whim, as the Southern Sky, blue over the mountains
And we was mighty high, and the time was ripe
Drivin' down Sewanee
Slidin' up from fourth into fifth, we enjoyed inquisitions
Of horrors and sin, and she said 'it's contagious, euthanasia'
Babylon, Babylon, a fallen star in the evening
