[10:13.260]She say 'You must be joking', I said 'I wish I was'
[10:21.790]She says 'You don't read women authors do ya?'
[10:26.590]at least that's what I think I hear her say
[10:35.130]Well I say 'How would you know, and what would it matter anyway'
[10:43.820]
[10:51.730]Well she says 'Ya just don't seem like ya do', I said 'You're way wrong'
[11:00.570]She says 'Which ones have you read then?', I say 'Read Erica Jong'
[11:07.510]She goes away for a minute, and I slide out, out of my chair
[11:23.650]I step outside back to the busy street, but nobody's goin' anywhere
[11:33.400]
[11:39.520]Well my heart's in The Highlands with the horses and hounds
[11:53.320]way up in the border country far from the towns
[11:55.850]with the twang of the arrow and the snap of the bow
[12:10.010]My heart's in The Highlands, can't see any other way to go
[12:19.420]
[12:25.840]Every day is the same thing, out the door
[12:31.570]feel further away than ever before
[12:43.610]Some things in life it just gets too late to learn
[12:58.870]Well I'm lost somewhere, I must have made a few bad turns
[13:09.060]
[13:14.440]I see people in the park, forgettin' their troubles and woes
[13:24.550]They're drinkin' and dancin', wearin' bright colored clothes
[13:32.880]All the young men with the young women lookin' so good
[13:49.400]Well I'd trade places with any of 'em, in a minute if I could
[13:53.910]
[14:00.300]I'm crossin' the street to get away from a mangy dog
[14:09.990]talkin' to myself in a monologue
[14:17.600]I think what I need might be a full length leather coat
[14:35.220]Somebody just asked me if I'm registered to vote
[14:42.320]
[14:49.000]The sun is beginnin' to shine on me
[14:55.820]But it's not like the sun that used to be
[15:05.050]The party's over and there's less and less to say
[15:30.200]I got new eyes, everything looks far away
[15:33.530]
[15:35.510]Well my heart's in The Highlands at the break of day
[15:44.890]over the hills and far away
[15:51.200]There's a way to get there, and I'll figure it out somehow
[16:05.270]Well I'm already there in my mind and that's good enough for now
