Woke up this morning crawled out between the sheets
My woman was warm, kisses oh so sweet
Wanted to stay but I had to go
Headed for the factory, made myself some dough

From what weve seen
What can I do still loving you
Its all a dream
How can we
Hang on to a dream
How can it really be the way it seems

It was a night, it was just another night
She was sayin lots of nothing
She was none too bright
But youll listen much to anythin
When anythins in sight, wont ya!
Sad to be alone
Your only comfort is the telephone
Homesick again
Thoughts of far away
Silence is the only way to say
Ain't it a shame

Theres a woman in New Orleans
Said to love me she was born
But that was Friday payday
By Sunday she was gone
So I drove on down to Texas
Where I did not do to well
I fell hard for this woman ...
She was a wall street celebrity
With upward mobility
Walked and talked like a man
But that was o.k. by me
Two bit losers can never be choosers
No nit pickin kickin the can

Look around and you try and find your girl
And youre daring, too sick of what you see

I could do it quite well
Give detailed desires, Id be tryin?like hell
You could leave a little clue

Welcome to the land of milk and honey
This is where your braves died to be free
Living in those days for love or money
Left your heart and soul at wounded knee

And what to do I just dont know
The moon is on the run
Another day to up and lay low

She came from New York
Seems like a bright spark
Knew all the answers to the game
Moved to a new town
Soon pushed her way around
But you're a lady just the same

And I saw her glidin on a moon beam
Silver stardust in her eyes
In the way she leaves her sighs
Last night I fell asleep

I've seen that girl before, I've seen the boys come and go
And still she's on her own
I've seen those tears before, I've seen her heart break
She knows what it means to be alone
I say black and you say white
I turn to the left, you move to the right
No matter what I do
I'm always on the other side of you
I'm always on the other side of you
I know the night is silent Ill be insane
Got to find a new place where I can hide from the rain
Ill wait for the weekend to get wasted and then
Gonna get on up so I can fall down again

Tearin up the freeways
Runnin in the big race, gotta get on
Shes comin on strong
Theres something goin on
Its the same old song but I gotta get on
I tried to hang on for as long as I could
But now I can see that it just aint no good
Our love it has wasted
Right down to the core
Whatever we had
We dont have anymore
