I can sleep it off,
Sleep it back to sleep,
I can be most anything I want
A long way from the shade,
The north side of the moon
Down here only rich men lose their shirts
And John Law wakes to sweep,
The morning off the street,
But no one cares if he has done his jo
And postcards never came,
From race tracks by the sea
From a gambler who says: "You are still my lucky thing"
Bordertown,
There's been an accident in Bordertown
Bordertown,
I am your accident in Bordertown
Coyotes stirs the drinks,
And drives his stolen jeep,
And drives the kingsnake to its happy hole
But I stand in the clear,
The only place he fears,
The only place he's never seen me stand
Bordertown,
There's been an accident in Bordertown
Bordertown,
I am your accident in Bordertown
There ain't no seasons here,
But the freezin' still appears,
Everytime I call this home
Can't be enough alone
I can sleep it off,
Sleep it back to sleep,
I can be most anything I want
A long way from the shade,
The north side of the moon
Down here only taxi drivers know my name
