| The tire well it spins where the gravel is fine
|
| Headin' down the county road, cause I catch a glimpse of the greyhound sign —
|
| see it through and watch it go
|
| It’ll chase the sun till it makes it turn bright, as it heads down to Houston
|
| town
|
| I’m gonna catch it buddy, I just might
|
| Someday, when I come around
|
| When I come around, I’m a fool and a stranger
|
| Come around, it’s a damn what they say
|
| When I come around, dragging the anchor
|
| So tonight, I’m dancing away
|
| The tower it got a fresh coat of paint
|
| It’s reading in a lot more clear
|
| I guess it don’t matter if you know you ain’t gonna make it too far from here
|
| She stands like a mountain
|
| She sleeps like a child
|
| And she won’t let her memory down
|
| I’m gonna shake my way out of its sight
|
| Someday when I come around
|
| When I come around, I’m a fool and a stranger
|
| Come around, it’s a damn what they say
|
| When I come around, dragging the anchor
|
| So tonight, I’m dancing away
|
| I knew a girl she used to say, «You're living like you’re spinning around.»
|
| We used to dance while the band used to play
|
| Slowly, we sifted the sound
|
| She caught the bus ten years ago today
|
| She hasn’t called me in nine
|
| I think now and then when I’m acting some way
|
| How she promised to keep me in line
|
| She chased the sun till it made her turn bright
|
| And the band put their instruments down
|
| I’m gonna catch her buddy, I just might
|
| Someday, when I come around
|
| When I come around, I’m a fool and a stranger
|
| Come around, it’s a damn what they say
|
| When I come around, dragging the anchor
|
| So tonight, I’m dancing away |
