Translation
Bilingual
He smelled like diesel and leather
Lava soap and warm weather
Pearl snap hung off him like an old scarecrow
Sandwich crackers and cellophane
His hair blown around like a weather vane
Windows down and off to town we'd go
Mmmm mhmm mmm
Iced tea at the front porch cafe
Cattle workin' Saturdays
Church potluck kind of stackin' chairs
And all those old men sittin' there
The Prophet stood ten feet tall
The quiet man above it all
He said pray for rain 'cause the weather man lies
Old men will clear their throat before they cry
Love your horses, mend your fences
Keep your common sense and know the difference
Between your heart and your head
He hung the moon and I hung on every word he ever said
ย
Rusty old blue cattle guard
Chickens pickin' around the yard
Swingin' legs, tailgate down
Me and him go check on the cows
Till grandma called "it's supper time"
The Prophet bowed his head
He said pray for rain 'cause the weather man lies
Old men will clear their throat before they cry
Love your horses, mend your fences
Keep your common sense and know the difference
Between your heart and your head
He hung the moon and I hung on every word he ever said
I still keep my boots by my bed
And a good knife in my pocket
And a picture in a locket
Of me and the prophet
ย
He said pray for rain 'cause the weather man lies
Old men will clear their throat before they cry
Love your horses, mend your fences
Keep your common sense and know the difference
Between your heart and your head
He hung the moon
ย
He hung the moon and I hung on every word he ever said
