Unknown Legend (feat. Shakey Graves) - Shovels & Rope, Shakey Graves

She used to work in a diner

Never saw a woman look finer

I used to order just to watch her float across the floor

She grew up in a small town

Never put her roots down

Daddy always kept movin', so she did too.

Somewhere on a desert highway

She rides a Harley-Davidson

Her long blonde hair flyin’in the wind

She’s been runnin’half her life

The chrome and steel she rides

Collidin’with the very air she breathes

The air she breathes.

You know it ain’t easy

You got to hold on She was an unknown legend in her time

Now she’s dressin’two kids

Lookin’for a magic kiss

She gets the far-away look in her eyes.

Somewhere on a desert highway

She rides a Harley-Davidson

Her long blonde hair flyin’in the wind

She’s been runnin’half her life

The chrome and steel she rides

Collidin’with the very air she breathes

The air she breathes.
