Drivin' in my Saab  On my way to Ireland  It's been a long time  It's been a long time  Drivin' with my friends  On my way to Ireland  It's been a long time  It's been a long time    So when I was out  In the desert  And a cowboy  Tried to lasso me  He said your red  And made of clay  A virgin portrait  I let him wake me  But decided not to stay    Next in New York  I fell out with a dragon  Of the white collar kind  But just as ferocious  I remembered Macha  Running faster than the horses  Then an encounter with  A voice that caressed me    Wasn't it you who  Held off a surrender  To one spoiled nun  Who taught you the names  Of the mountains  On the moon  And then a Jesuit  Proceded to arrange your soul  While I prayed  On my knees
