Once
The dogs have quit their barking
"Son"
My neighbor said to me
"Know the emptiness of talking blue
The same old sheep"
ย
Run
I'll do no more this walking
Haunted by a past I just can't see
Anymore
Anymore
But let me tell you I have never planned
To let go of the hand that has been
Clinging by it's thick country skin
To my yellow country teeth
To my yellow country teeth
ย
Far
Far away from West Virginia
I
Will try on New York City
Explaining that the sky holds the
Wind, the sun rushes in
And a child with a shotgun can shoot down
Honeybees that sting
But this boy could use a little sting
Alright
ย
Who
Will get me to a party?
Who
Do I have yet to meet?
You
You look a bit like coffee
And you taste a bit like me
ย
How
Can I keep me from moving?
Now
I need a change of scenery
Just listen to me I won't pretend to
Understand the movement of the wind
Or the waves out in the ocean or how
Like the hours I change softly slowly
Plainly blindly oh me oh my
