Lyrics for Song: Nightmare
Lyrics for Album: Other Songs - Pat Green
Last night I had me a nightmare.
Dreamed that Texas was burning down.
And all those people, I'd grown up to love
Were leavin' town.
So I cried oh-whoa Moses, bring a flood from the Red, Red sea.
Bring back Towns Van Zandt and my heroes back to me.
'Cause I can play these songs but it ain't the way they do.
Ain't the way they do.
I had a Nightmare, a Nightmare, it was a Nightmare.
Buddy Holly, was riding on the wind.
Stevie Ray, he was too.
But when there star comes tumblin' to the ground.
Not a thing all the king's horses, and all the king's men could do.
Me, I just got my ol' barstool.
And man it's burning me down. (burnin' me down)
Just like a brushfire, that burns all through the night.
One of these days I'm gonna, one of these days I'm gonna burn on out.
So I cried oh-whoa Moses, bring a flood from the Red, Red sea.
Bring back Towns Van Zandt and my heroes back to me.
'Cause I can play these songs but it ain't the way they do.
Ain't the way they do.
I had a Nightmare, a Nightmare, it was a Nightmare.
I had a Nightmare, a Nightmare, oooo-ooh.
