Ballad Of The Lonely Argonaut lyrics

half by sea through the isthmus over the cape they're roundin and over land follow the shallow ribbon of the plaid in el dorado ways the avalance and the boys are off to see the elephants how does it feel to roam this land like Harte and Twain did how how how does it feel a thousand miles closer to hell over land they passed god's bluff and crossed the bay's end half by sea they follow the coast and through the gate where gold is coated with gold on the land and hills where we lay for hours and hours cool gray ladies with (?) spreading his cheer and they sit for hours and hours the luck of the roaring camp and how they talk the outcast of the flats and their poker face cannot hide the fever of the childrens crusades slow slower than slow days fill into one another gold is coated with gold on the land and hills where we lay for hours and hours cool gray ladies with (?) spreading his cheer and they sit for hours and hours
