Transcendental Blues Lyrics - Transcendental Blues - Steve Earle

In the darkest hour of the longest night 

If it was in my power I'd step into the light 

Candles on the alter, penny in your shoe 

Walk upon the water transcendental blues 

Happy ever after 'til the day you die 

Careful what you ask for, you don't know 'til you try 

Hands are in your pockets, starin' at your shoes 

Wishin' you could stop it transcendental blues 

If I had it my way, everything would change 

Out here on this highway the rules are still the same 

Back roads never carry you where you want 'em to 

They leave you standin' there with them ol' transcendental blues
