No More Pioneers - Patty Griffin
I wonder when the summer started smellin' so bad He woke up one morning and it seemed that way He thought of that woman and it got him so mad -- had to hold him to keep him away There had to be something he could do about this Then the feeling came on him like a shot As soon as the woman -- taken From me every last thing I got Tell me, where do we go from here Tell me, where do we go from here There ain't no more pioneers And the pain is so clear His heart is beating fast as a child's Those voices from his past, they were calling They were saying what they always Do to get him more riled He opens the door and starts falling Then the call comes through on 9-1-1 And got him --, just another day baby Then this woman starts screaming that he's got a gun He's gonna blow her and her children all away Can you tell me, where do we go from here Tell me, where do we go from here There ain't no more pioneers And the pain is so clear Policemen are down in the parking lot And they'll come running, baby When they hear the first shot They're gonna kick down the door And hear it ring twice Here's your one last chance To do somethin' nice Can you tell me, where do we go from here Tell me, where do we go from here There ain't no more pioneers And the pain is so clear I wonder when the summer started I wonder when the summer started I wonder when the summer started Smellin' so bad, baby
