I took a train down through mexico

With my father and brother ansel

You can't know

Well, you can't ever really know

Would you really want to know

How the hell would you know.

I made a mess of myself and the trip on the whole

My father's good patience with me, why I don't know

You can't know

You can't ever really know

That's the last time I had seen my brother ansel.

Troubles on the head winds

Troubles on the tail winds

Troubles on the head winds

Troubles on the tail winds.

Oh, oh oh oh

Oh, oh oh

Oh, oh oh, oh...

Me and my sister we hung on the phone

Watching the news

As they looked for ansel

On top of that mountain

And underneath the snow

They had dogs that were sniffing

I guess you'll never know.

You can't know

You can't ever really know

Would you really want to know

How the hell would you know.

You can't know

You can't ever really know

Would you really want to know

How the hell would you know.

The last time that you ever see another soul

No, you never get to know

No, you don't know.
