The Engine Driver |
I’m an engine driver |
On a long run, on a long run |
Would I work beside her |
She’s a long one, such a long one |
And if you don’t love me, let me go And if you don’t love me, let me go |
I’m a county lineman |
On the high line, on the high line |
So will be my grandson |
There are power lines in our bloodlines |
And if you don’t love me, let me go And if you don’t love me, let me go And I am a writer |
A writer of fictions |
I am the heart that you call home |
I’ve written pages upon pages |
Trying to rid you from my bones |
My bones, my bones |
I’m a moneylender |
I have fortunes upon fortunes |
Take my hand for tender |
I am tortured, ever tortured |
And if you don’t love me, let me go And if you don’t love me, let me go And I am a writer |
Writer of fictions |
I am the heart that you call home |
I’ve written pages upon pages |
Trying to rid you from my bones |
I am a writer |
I am all that you have known |
And I’ve written pages upon pages |
Trying to rid you from my bones |
My bones, my bones |
(And if you don’t love me, let me go) |
And if you don’t love me, let me go |
(And if you don’t love me, let me go) |
And if you don’t love me, let me go |
