[Intro]
[Verse]
James Dean died neath the tree of heaven
Near the old Jack Ranch Café
Brother Donald Turnupspeed
Must have looked the wrong old way
[Verse]
Oh, that German car was burning
As the hawks took to the air
Forty miles from Paso Robles
In a land called, Way Out There
[Chorus]
In a land called, Way out there , my brothers
In a land called, Way Out There
Forty miles from Paso Robles
In a land called, Way Out There
[Verse]
Come look outside my window, mama
Something wicked this way comes
The carnival is breaking ground
With its roustabouts and bums
[Verse]
And the hoochie koochie dancing girls
With sawdust in their hair
And the band played John Phillip Sousa
In a land called, Way Out There
[Chorus]
In a land called, Way out there , my brothers
In a land called, Way Out There
And the band played John Phillip Sousa
In a land called, Way Out There
[Instrumental]
[Verse]
Oh, all we ve learned about love and violence
Comes from bibles and movie magazines
But what goes down in the trenches, baby
It s like nothing you ve ever seen
[Verse]
People tearing people up
Good god, it makes me scared
Heaven take me beyond all this
To a land called, Way Up There
[Chorus]
In a land called, Way out there , my brothers
In a land called, Way Out There
Heaven take me beyond all this
To a land called, Way Up There
[Outro]
James Dean died neath the tree of heaven
Near the old Jack Ranch Café
