Will Dockery And Henry Conley - Shadowville Speedway lyrics

rate me

Shadowville Speedway Blues

In a taxi watching a sporting house

Beside a Linwood vacant lot

Silverdollar moon portspotting

Constellation like a sailor's knot.

The sky was black, ink and glitter in the night

Train whine saxophone out beyond the light.

I'm in love with a ghost blue turns to grey

Put a pyramid on my head to take my pain away.

Shadowville, Shadowville Speedway

Riding slow down a one way street.

Brown Reculse magic drifting around the shed

Someone has it in for me I must not lose my head

Moving with the speedo life several with me left behind

Burned too many bridges defragmented my time.

Somewhere in time I've seen all this before

In a magazine or a dream of a distant war.

Shadowville, Shadowville Speedway

Riding slow down a one way street.

Manifested destiny a manifesto and a part

All the actors still agree that ever had a heart.

Hazel knew the karma, she kept it in a bottle

Black tooth mojo marked index cards

Bundles over the side of Dillingham Bridge

Splashing as ripples reflect from the stars.

Shadowville, Shadowville Speedway

Riding slow down a one way street

Shadowville, Shadowville Speedway

Don't look back, don't admit defeat.
