Swallows Of San Juan - Alejandro Escovedo

Gonna crawl upon the shore

Roll in the mud and the clay

Like the swallows of San Juan

I’m gonna get back, someday

A thousand steps to the water

A thousand steps you must take

There’s a thousand worlds on the a head of a pin

A thousand rules to break

Next time you see me

I’m gonna smile for the camera

Like some wild man from Pompei

Take my word, go down to the sea

It’s breaking bigger than anything, any of us have ever seen

I’m gonna crawl upon the shore

Roll in the mud and the clay

Like the swallows of San Juan

I’m gonna get back, someday

Had a blond TV special

And an English house staff

I lost some??

gold?

in a deal

But some day, some day I’ll get em' back

Next time you see me

I’m gonna smile for the camera

Like some wild man from Pompei

Take my word, go down to the sea

It’s breaking bigger than anything, anything I’ve ever seen

I’m gonna crawl upon the shore

Roll in the mud and the clay

Like the swallows of San Juan

I’m gonna get back, get back someday

I’m gonna get back someday…

Get back someday…

Gonna get back someday…

Yeeahhh, someday…

Gonna get back someday…

Get back…
