Mendocino County Blue Lyrics

Half day south of the Oregon line
Somewhere between a dream and a friend of mine
There�s a song played out in the California heat
Where the rain won�t touch
The road stretches out where the river unwinds
Red tail rider from the highway sign
You let the windows down and you�re headed right into
Mendocino County Blues

CHORUS

Big wheel down
Little wheel roll
Make a sound that�ll shake your soul
There�s an eye in the sky everywhere you go
They�re coming around
You can blame it on the money
But it�s your own damn fault
Trouble ain�t trouble
Til you get caught
Just one more ride and we�ll have it made
Floating cool as the cotton in the Manzanita shade

CHORUS

Starlight Stella�s got the mojo touch
With the sandman�s hand man she don�t need much
She makes the sugary sweet when he reaches right through

CHORUS
