Long Time Down |
| I know it’s been a long time since we were shaken down, |
| We worked out of the slaughter house on the outskirts of town |
| You caught it and it was poison to you while it was mean to me, |
| We rested on the doubtful side, they don’t know what it means to see |
| And now it’s time to move on onto solid ground |
| I’d like you to come and walk with me where we can lay us down |
| You know, I’ve waited so long, |
| Honey, where do we go now? |
| You know, I’ve waited so long, |
| Oh, honey, where do we go now? |
| You know, it’s been a long time that we’ve been waitin' to go |
| Sitting patiently exploded, torture as the slow fuse blows |
| The mystery of your faded smile has helped me through the years |
| And now and then I only see your eyes as the station nears |
| You know, I’ve waited so long, |
| Honey, where do we go now? |
| You know, I’ve waited so long, |
| Oh, honey, where do we go now? |
| We caught us a blue train, what other way is there to ride? |
| I’d never found another just too torn away inside |
| There shines the moon with a message bidding all hands to heed the call, |
| Now I know I’m no prospector 'cause I’ve got no prospects at all |
| Stolen hearts beneath the floorboards will thunder out of the condemned |
| I see your address has been taken off at the very end |
| The weird things I’ve been run with would empty a tanker of tears, |
| Along with the memory of your sweet mist to blow away all of my fears |
| You know, I’ve waited so long, |
| Honey, where do we go now? |
| You know, I’ve waited so long, |
| Oh, honey, where do we go now? |
| It’s been a long time coming, a long time down |
| It’s been a long time coming, the snow is on the ground… |
