Current song lyrics
(For Tom Jans)<br /><br />Well, I grew up here all of my life, and I dreamed someday I?d go<br />Where the blue-eyed girls, and the red guitars, and the naked rivers flow<br />Now I?m not all I thought I?d be, I?ve always stayed around<br />I?ve been as far as Mercy and Grand, frozen to the ground<br /><br />But I can?t stay here, and I?m scared to leave<br />So kiss me once, and then I?ll go to hell<br />I might as well be whistlin? down the wind<br /><br />The bus is at the corner, the clock on the wall<br />Broken down windmill, there ain?t no wind at all<br />And I yelled and I cursed, if I stay here I?ll rust<br />And I?m stuck like a shipwreck out here in the dust<br /><br />The sky is red, and the world is on fire, and the corn is taller than me<br />And the dog is tied to a wagon of rain, and the road is wet as the sea<br />And sometimes the music from a dance will carry across the plains<br />And the places that I?m dreaming of, do they dream only of me?<br /><br />There are places where they never sleep, and the circus never ends<br />So I will take the Marley Bone Coach, and be whistlin? down the wind<br />So I will take the Marley Bone Coach, and be whistlin? down the wind<br /><br />Music & Lyrics by: Tom Waits and Kathleen Brennan<br />Official release: ?Bone Machine?, Island Records Inc., © 1992
