Red River, keep on rolling down It's been a long time since I let my hair hang down I'll take my time before I go under the ground Oh dandelion, tell me what you're thinking now Shape I'm in, I better get back home soon I got one eye on the road and one eye on the big black moon Dandelion, won't you tell me what to do Ironsides rusting in the railroad rain Now I found out what the Captain of the Morning was saying Dandelion, better hope your mother's praying Dumb luck is the only luck I ever knew I'd make a wish but I don't think it'd ever come true Dandelion, I guess I'll leave it up to you Belle Starr, she doesn't have any shoes She walks crooked and paints her eyelids blue Dandelion, I wanna go there too
