about
This track is about a fella who's convinced he's fighting giants and rescuing maidens when he's really just sleeping in a bush.
lyrics
Many years I’ve wandered
Over Hilltop and grassy dale
Many times I’ve tried
To find somewhere to rest my sail
But the city grows cold
And the bars start to look the same
So I’ll pack up my donkey
And get my ass on the road again
‘Cause I’m just a joker on my way I’ve got no stories to tell
I’m just a joker on my way I guess I’ll fare thee well
Give me a winding camiño
Let me sleep under a void of a sky
And I’ll find your face up in the stars
Keep me company out through the night
See my companions are few
It’s just Sancho my lefty and me
But as I’m walking this lonesome road
I’ll remember your touch so sweetly
But it can’t be
‘Cause I’m just a joker on my way I got no stories to tell
I’m just a joker on my way I guess I’ll fare thee well
I met a coven of witches
And they made me think of you
They read my cards they scratched my heart
And said your door I could return to
But I’ve sharpened my lance
I search the hills for giants to fight
And though all I see are these bloody windmills
I’ll chase those bastards down alright
Make ‘em put up a fight
‘Cause I’m just a joker on my way I’ve got no stories to tell
I’m just a joker on my way I guess I’ll fare thee well
(Hummin’ break)
See I don’t wanna die in some apartment complex
Let me live in a Castillo by the sea
I’ll be dartin’ and chargin’ in and out the waves
I’ll spend my days in reverie
And I’ll sharpen my quill
Write down on vellum all I set out to see
And as I grow old within these stone walls
You can call me Don Quixote
‘Cause I’m just a joker on my way I’ve got no stories to tell
I’m just a joker on my way I guess I’ll fare thee well
Oh I’m just a joker on my way I’ve got no stories to tell
I’m just a joker on my way I guess I’ll fare thee well
