lyrics

It’s a quarter to four at the break of day/And I really should be on my way/It’s getting late, but the wind blows somethin’ fierce/And the city is grey/Like an iron bell on judgment day/I’m at the black gate/Lord, won’t you stop the rain?//

Holes in my pockets, soles are busted/Luck worn thin like a handkerchief/I’m a gentleman, bound for better than this/Grind, push ‘em and a shove ‘em/Shining there over the Hudson/ “You want land? Son, we got some”//

Chorus// You’ve never dared, only dreamed it/A call to live like you mean it/It’s a paradise like you’ve never seen//

Rattle in a tin jar, bees in a glass jar/Tap, tap, drummin’ to the beat of the march/Slow in comin’, there by summertime// Here then there, station to station/ Winds with a chance of decimation/A letter to my mama and my relations //

Repeat Chorus//

Come summer, I’ll have something to show, but it’s seven days grey, two hundred to go/Seven days grey, two hundred to go/ Seven days grey, two hundred to go//Repeat Chorus//
