Theme For An Imaginary Western
Composer(s): Pete Brown - Jack Bruce
First release by: Jack Bruce - 1969



When the wagons leave the city
For the forest and further on
Painted wagons of the morning
Dusty roads where they have gone

Sometimes traveling to the darkness
Met the summer coming home
Fallen faces by the wayside
Looked as if they might have known

Oh, the sun was in their eyes
And the desert that dries
In the country town
Where the laughter sounds

All the dancing and the singing
All the music when they played
All the fires that they started
And all the girls with no regrets

Sometimes they found it, sometimes they kept it
Often lost it along the way
Fought each other to possess it
Sometimes died in sight of day
