Текст песни Big Huge Valley - Vic Chesnutt

Well the big huge valley is a ribbon of light
The aqueducts are snakes tonight
The stars are homesteaders, staking claims
My head is hopping with historical names

Transfer trucks are buffalos
Chewing up this desert road
Yes and I am nothing especially
Just an uptight man on a useless journey

And the oil is pumping up out of the dirt
Yeah, the virile dinosaurs continue to squirt
And the mountains lay like croaker sacks
Yeah, the global forces sculpt with tectonic panache

And the crop duster flies
Through those blackish skies
She ain't on the clock
She's a-banking in, she's a-pulling out
Her propeller eyes are on the wind sock

Well the big huge valley is on a respirator
Life juices pumped from up in the Sierras
The almond trees battle their own disease
The hay is jaundiced and those raisins wheeze

Cattle march under the knife
Yes, I do believe the big doctor is sweating up a storm tonight
Yes, I do believe the big doctor is sweating up a storm
Sweating up a storm tonight
