I lost ten points just for being in the right place at exactly the wrong time. I looked right at the facts there, but I may as well have been completely blind. So, if you see me walking all alone don't look back, I'm just on my way back home. There's a train leaves here this morning, I don't know what I might be on. She signed me to a contract, said it would all be so life-long. I looked around then for a reason when there wasn't something more to blame it on.
But if time makes a difference while we're gone tell me now, there's a train leaves here this morning I don't know, what I might be on. 1320 North Columbus was the address that I wrote down on my sleeve. I don't know just what she wanted. Might have been that it was getting time to leave. And I watched as the Pupser passed it on and I laughed when the joker said, »Lead on.« 'Cause there's a train leaves here this morning I don't know what I might be on. There's a train leaves here this morning I don't know what I might be on.
Thanks to Stewart Cooke for correcting these lyrics.

The Doobie Brothers - »South City Midnight Lady«
Up all night I could not sleep. The whiskey that I drank was cheap. With shakin' hands I went and I lit up my last cigarette. Well the sun came, the night had fled and sleepy eyed I reached my bed I saw... James Taylor - »How Sweet It Is (To Be Loved By You)« - How sweet it is to be loved by you. How sweet it is to be loved by you. I needed the shelter of someone's arms and there you were. I needed someone to understand my ups and downs and there you... Glen Campbell - »Gentle On My Mind«... It's knowing that your door is always open and your path is free to walk. That makes me tend to leave my sleeping bag rolled up and stashed behind your couch. And it's knowing I'm not shackled by Rocco - »Heart Of The Night«. In the heart of the night in the cool southern rain there's a full moon in sight shining down on the Pontchartrain. And the river she rises just like she used to do. She's so full of surprises She´s Bruce Springsteen - »Hello Sunshine«. Had enough of heartbreak hotels in Tokyo and pain I had a little sweet spot for the rain. For the rain and skies of grey. Hello sunshine, won't you stay? You know I always liked my walking shoes but you can get a... Bitter Creek.
Once I was young and so sure. I'd try any ill to find the cure. An old man told me tryin' to scold me »Oh, son, don't wade to deep in Bitter Creek,« (Bitter Creek). Out where the desert meets the sky. It´s where I go when I wanna hide. Oh, peyote (oh,peyote,mm). She tried to show me (tried to show me). You know there ain't no cause to weep at Bitter Creek.
Bitter Creek doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo. We're gonna hit the road for one last time. We can walk right in and steal 'em blind. All that money (All that money,ooh..). No more runnin' (No more runnin'). I can't wait to see the old man's face when I win the race.
(Bitter Creek) Doo doo doo doo doo doo doo-
Doo doo doo doo doo.
Doo.........
