I'm comin over
See me down at the station
By the lane

With my hands in my pocket
Jingling a wish coin
That I stole from a fountain

That was drowning all the cares in the world
When I get older
Climbin up on the back porch fence

Just to see the dogs runnin
With a ring and a question
And my shiverin voice is singing

Thru a crack in the window

I better go it alone


Down on the corner
See me standin

On a makeshift road
With the dust storm blowin
In a long black shadow

Pull a hammer from a coal mine
Down where your daddy was workin
Comb my hair back

Strike a match on a bathroom wall
Where my number was written
Drivin on the sidewalk

Lookin back and the sky is burning
In my rearview mirror


I better go it alone
