|
I'm savin' all my nickels |
|
And half of every dime |
|
I'm washin' all the blankets |
|
God knows that I'm tryin' |
|
I fixed the gate |
|
We will find each other so they say |
|
In the meantime |
|
I'm lonesome while I wait |
|
I'm lyin' to my family |
|
Of who I'm thinkin' about |
|
I had another woman |
|
Somehow she found out |
|
She always knew |
|
We'll be honest with each other, me and you |
|
In the meantime |
|
I'll break a heart or two |
|
Now I'm sellin' saws and hammers |
|
For half of what they're worth |
|
I'm dreamin' for a living |
|
I got no time for work |
|
It's gettin' hard |
|
One day we will never be apart |
|
In the meantime |
|
I'm wonderin' where you are |
|
Now I'm burnin' sheets of plywood |
|
I pried up off the floor |
|
The house is out of lumber |
|
At least for now I'm warm |
|
For now I'm warm |
|
We'll be warm beneath the Carolina moon |
|
In the meantime |
|
I should find another room |
|
I'm drinkin' from the faucet |
|
I'm lucky when I sleep |
|
I'm sleepin' in the closet |
|
I'm scared of the police |
|
What should I do? |
|
One day you will be my reason too |
|
In the meantime |
|
I'll just be passing through |
