ALICETOWN

The dust devil shows exotic visions
When the hot wind starts to blow
Alice up ahead is spinning
In her pink and purple robe

And I'm gonna swim in her oasis
Underneath the swaying palms
A thousand miles from any city
Yeah the sun shows you no pity
Desert all around
On the road to Alicetown

In her bones she is a young girl
In her soul she is so old
But Alice, oh she is so pretty
Rarer than a desert rose

And I'm gonna swim in her oasis
Underneath the swaying palms
A thousand miles from any city
Yeah the sun shows you no pity
Desert all around
On the road to Alicetown

The jewel of Alice is a sapphire
Cooler than the ocean breeze
Her streets are paved with aqua seashells
She gathered from an ancient sea

And I'm gonna swim in her oasis
Underneath the swaying palms
A thousand miles from any city
Yeah the sun shows you no pity
Desert all around
On the road to Alicetown
Heaven's all around
Now I'm here in Alicetown

Contender for 2022 GK nomination - Country

What the Folk!
Rich guitar swirling about, reminds me of the Stampeders folk rock with a little country twang, tasty work with really nice feel
