In the Tall Grass of Dreams - James Dean

Rebel without a cause and bad to the bone In his white tight t-shirt and back pocket comb Oooh well I think you were one real cool dude... But of course there was more to you than That ever did meet the eye and although you've Been gone a long, long time your legend will Never die... Somewhere east of Eden, IN THE TALL GRASS OF DREAMS, a scene off a movie screen, I can Hear your laughter in the wind, you wink at me And then disappear again somewhere east of Eden IN THE TALL GRASS OF DREAMS, it’s JAMES DEAN On the cover of another magazine, somewhere Somewhere east of Eden, IN THE TALL GRASS OF DREAMS are the scene off a movie screen... Starring and now showing JAMES DEAN... Rebel without a cause and bad to the bone In his red, red jacket and back pocket comb... I wish I could have met you 'cuz I bet you were one Real cool dude... Still though your legacy lingers... Bad, bad boy JAMES DEAN... East of Eden... Somewhere IN THE TALL, TALL GRASS OF DREAMS!
