MYSTIC DREAMER - ALL INSTRUMENTALS, ALL THE TIME! Just spent three weeks in the hospital (mid January). My heart stopped 4 times, twice at home, once in the ambulance and once at the hospital. I am lucky to have a nurse/wife who kept me alive with CPR. Home now but tired. Going in for an Angiogram in February and a possible pacemaker. PLEASE! Still need the real title to my posted "Unknown Bruce Springsteen". I cannot find the title to this old Bruce hit. If you know it, PLEASE e-mail me with it so I can check to see how close I came, or if I have to "revise" it! I did it from a vague memory of the tune. Recently posted an old Roy Orbison hit titled "Shahdaroba" as well as my personal favorite "Palisades Park" an old Freddie Cannon Song. I also posted "Time To Say Goodbye", a pretty orchestration of a truly beautiful song. Will post two new ones I recently wrote soon! Hopefully I will have more time to devote to my music than I did this summer Like to discuss/talk music? Contact "Frankoid111@aol.com" Love to all! Frank On Music page, please note that an asterisk * after a song title denotes an original composition. For a playlist of all my albums, see "Lyrics" on "Outer Limit".

Lyrics
Pancho and Lefty Livin on the road my friend, is gonna keep you free and clean, Now you wear your skin like iron, Your breath as hard as kerosene. You weren't your momma's only boy, But her favorite one it seems. She began to cry when you said goodbye, and sank into your dreams Pancho was a bandit boy, his horse was fast as polished steel. He wore his gun outside his pants, For all the honest world to feel. Pancho met his match you know, on the deserts down in Mexico. Nobody heard his dyin’ words, ah but that's the way it goes. All the Federales say, they could've had him any day. They only let him slip away, out of kindness I suppose Lefty he can't sing the blues, all night long like he used to. The dust that Pancho bit down south, ended up in Lefty's mouth. The day they laid poor Pancho low, Lefty split for Ohio. Where he got the bread to go, there ain't nobody knows. All the Federales say, they could've had him any day. They only let him slip away out of kindness I suppose. The boys tell how old Pancho fell, and Lefty's livin in cheap hotels. The desert's quiet, Cleveland's cold, And so the story ends we're told. Pancho needs your prayers it's true, but save a few for Lefty too. He only did what he had to do, and now he's growing old. All the Federales say, they could've had him any day. They only let him go so long, out of kindness I suppose. A few gray Federales say, they could've had him any day. They only let him go so long, out of kindness I suppose.
