Paroles de El Dorado

(Three, four) Did you ever make it back to El Dorado? I'd call and ask, but hell if I know If I still got your number or if you care You moved away when you was younger Was it escape or was it hunger? Kansas ain't no place to be a man You used to say you'd settle down But that kind girl from school in town She was gone before you got back home To El Dorado, hell if I know if you're still alive There's a note in the glovebox in your drive El Dorado, hell if they know the difference in a hero And a man I wish was still by my side Seventeen years old How our grins look scary brave My mama always said we look so handsome when we shave You used to say: If not you, then who? And you'd go a thousand times or two Now your name's up on a sign in El Dorado driving through In El Dorado, hell if I know if you're still alive There's a note in the glovebox in your drive El Dorado, hell if they know the difference in a hero And a man I wish was still by my side You're in every last memory alive And I called last week to talk to my favorite old devil dog They told me he had finally headed home
