Just Passing Through

Snakes sometimes bite without hissing, and too many girls don't like kissing - So, let's go on down to old Mexico wile the time away, living and loving waiting on the judgment day - Everybody come on with us sing and dance along, for we're all just passing through here before we're gone - When that wind comes a blowing down by the river, the old trees will shake and shiver - Paradise is a place not easy to find, real peace comes from a memory deep inside the mind - Yonder comes Mr. Lincoln riding a slow train, his casket on a flat-car is covered with rain - The people wail and moan watching him going on his way home, they hang their heads and cry as life goes passing by - It feels like the soul of God and God, I wish it was, the time, the place, the mystery it's all a melancholy kind of love - We're all out here sailing with the wild-wind blues, but living goes a bit easier when we understand together, we are all just passing through -
