lyrics

I can’t get this tie straight
It always turns; I still need a few minutes
My shoes keep coming loose
And I stand like a train just blew me by

I try to calculate the words
As I stumble on the deck
Try to make it neat
But I just laugh, and wave it off again

Blame it on the time
On the chase for those last stray nickels
This house keeps wearing down
But we live on with those bricks and stones and hail

Saw those wheels roll down Molly Street
Taillight’s out, ‘n she burns away
She holds the fire as she says,
These hills just seem light themselves

I try to calculate the words
As I stumble on the deck
Try to make it neat
But I just laugh, and wave it off again

I’ve been standing by the porch swing
To watch the world and how it’s drunk on all that moonlight
It can’t recall the day
