Van Dyke Parks - Heroes & Villains lyrics

I've been in this town so long that back in the city I've been taken for lost and gone And unknown for a long, long time Fell in love years ago With an innocent girl From the Spanish and Indian home Of the heroes and villains Once at night Catillian squared the fight And she was right in the rain of the bullets that eventually brought her down But she's still dancing in the night Unafraid of what a dude'll do in a town full of heroes and villains Heroes and villains Just see what you've done Heroes and villains Just see what you've done Stand or fall I know there Shall be peace in the valley And it's all an affair Of my life with the heroes and villains My children were raised You know they suddenly rise They started slow long ago Head to toe, healthy, wealthy, and wise I've been in this town so long So long to the city I'm fit with the stuff To ride in the rough And sunny down snuff I'm all right By the heroes and Heroes and villains Just see what you've done Heroes and villains Just see what you've done
