Wearing wings you looked so grand, wearing wings
Overtime, I've lost my fire, overtime
And I thought I saw you cheating once or twice
I followed through a sideshow to another town
Now you've packed it in, I heard you did, packed it in
The man calls out the numbers, he sometimes mentions mine
While I'm slowin' down, I'm getting tired, slowin' down
Lately you've been hiding, it was somewhere in the news
Do you tie them to your shoulders just to sing?
And I found you in a trailer on the camping grounds
You were playing like a devil wearing wings
You were playing on the horses, playing on the guitar strings
Well I'm still at these races with my ticket stubs and my blues
Always playin' one more hand for one more dime
But I feel like I've been working overtime
You were betting on some lover, shootin' out the dice
Can you fly? I heard you can, Can you fly
Once or twice, I heard you did, once or twice
Just like an eagle doin' his hunting from the sky?
Were you wondering was the gamble worth the price?
Was it hard to fold a hand you knew could win?
And I envy you the valley that you've found
