I grew up here for all of my life But I dreamed someday I'd go Where blue eyed girls and red guitars And the naked rivers flow
I'm not all I thought I'd be I've always stayed around And I've been as far as Mercy and Grand Frozen to the ground
I can't stay here and I'm scared to leave So kiss me once and then I'll go to hell, I might as well Be whistlin' down the wind
Buses at the corner Clock on the wall Broken down windmill Ain't no wind at all
I've yelled and I've cursed If I stay here I'll rust I'm stuck like a shipwreck Out here in the dust
The sky is red, and the world is on fire And the corn is taller than me And the dog is tied to a wagon of rain And the road is wet as the sea
Sometimes the music from a dance Will carry across the plains And the places that I'm dreaming of Dream only of your face
There are places where they never sleep And the circus never ends So I will take the Marley Bone Coach And be whistlin' down the wind So I will take the Marley Bone Coach And be whistlin' down the wind
