The Long Walk Home
David Thomas, Mayo Thompson, Allen Ravenstine, Tony Maimone, Anton Fier
On the long walk home thoughts stride long and crankily
The antelope are swaying
To the song of the buffalo groaning
Old buffalo moaning
As the heat beats down like a hammer
The lay of the land is like a frying pan
As the heat beats down like a hammer
Molecular excitement means nourishment
The orchestrations of biochemistry
Are eloquent
Still the heat beats down like a hammer
On the prairie floor the insеcts roar
The nights were cool
Thе nights were cruel
The days are hot
The days are hot on the long walk home
