Acoustic version of Adventure Song Lyrics... I became the adventure in my America down in Area 51 Playing handball schoolyard rules with bigfoot and the cowboy angels Until Van Helsing showed up that mad old bastard stumbled out of the desert He was wearing a Wanda Jackson T-shirt and he looked like he knew something i didn't I followed him to the ends of the world thought i had some things to learn Like a passing of the torch one day that mad cowboy he upped and left Didn't say goodbye, didn't saying nothing he just caught my eye and licked my fingertip Well i pointed that wet finger to the complicated sky must have seen about 3 suns rise by the time the wind was west, i was wasted and i just needed some good woman But the ancient's said paradise cannot be known that punks like me, we die alone But i'd known a native Indian girl with a mammoth tooth necklace I kissed her doomsday, i heard her rain-dance and i smelt her wilderness I was singing that old Arkansas song when i tripped on her skeleton I was almost a teenager again , there in her bones i screamed and joy came out The kind of sound that makes men build statues 25 feet above the ground and then a shiver ran through my bones as thoughts of paradise left me alone and i held my own.
