Swept Away Songtext
von Jon Dee Graham

If you find my car
at a low water crossing
With the door wide open
and the keys still inside
Don′t say 'so long′
Don't say 'goodbye′

I was swept away
swept away
Let them say I was swept away

Sat on the back porch
smoked a cigarette
Sat on the back porch
I smoked seven cigarettes
Sat on the back porch
I was looking at my hands

I was swept away
swept away
Let them say I was swept away


I′ll walk the switches
all the way to Crystal
I'll be uncomfortable for a little while
Crossed at the Piadras
where no one looks back

I was swept away
swept away
Let them say I was swept away

Cross the wild Senora
to the land of the duroes (?)
I′ll be a stranger for a little while
Among the stones, mesquites, and madrones

I'll be swept away
swept away
Let them say he was swept away

Well if you find my car
at a low water crossing
With the doors wide open
and the keys still inside
