One Paper Kid (with Willie Nelson)

Cowboys and Indians and trees he could climb
 Tomorrow came too fast, but he didn't mind
 The distance was short, so light it again
 Don't take no time to get where I am
 But one paper kid wasn't really so mean
 Just a little bit scared and a little bit green
 And he'd heard of a place where it's legal to dream
 So he sat with his coffee in a blue Texas wind
 And he wrote on a rock
 One paper kid is rolling again
 The driver was drunk or he just didn't see
 The future is there, it'll happen to me
 All the time that he wasted was his once again
 It never takes too long to go where you've been
 Broken hearts scattered all over the past
 Old bad memories trying to last
 Whiskey and women and growing up fast
 Fussing and loving and itching like grass
 Hell, one paper kid wasn't really so mean
 Just a little bit weird 'cause times were so lean
 Now he's gone to a place where it's legal to dream
 No camels, no coffee, no cold morning winds
 And he wrote on a rock
 One paper kid is rolling again
 One paper kid is rolling again
