The Promise Ring
Everywhere in Denver
And your young English eyes on the highways, climbs and dives
Highways, climbs and dives like it's, like it's, like it's alive
And your young English eyes on the highways, climbs and dives
And the black in Indiana is leaving for Atlanta

If she'll ever go anywhere with me
Wish you'd go anywhere with me
Wish you'd go anywhere with me

From the corner of coffee and fever
Hazel and curry and your long walking worry
And you think I'm not eating
"Yeah, what've you been reading?"

And they put out the lights and lit up the crickets
They knew I was taking you out
We talked over Ida and Arkansas, yeah
Like the country whispers to nothing near at all
