I'm staring down a mile of disappearing track
Is this the best that we could do
I'm leaning through the rain but you ain't...
Soon the pines will be falling everywhere
Village children fight each other for a share
And the 6:09 goes roaring past the...
I'll catch the tramline in the morning
With your leave Van Bushell said
He had further heard the cock crow
As he...
From this day on I own my father's gun
We dug his shallow grave beneath the sun
I laid his broken body down below the southern...
Rolling over trying to sleep
And understanding women
Thinking of you out there somewhere
Looking for a new beginning
I took myself a blue canoe
And I floated like a leaf
Dazzling, dancing
Half enchanted
In my Merlin sleep...
Whenever I hear good-bye
Reminds me, baby, of you
I break down and cry
The next time I'll be true, yeah

Lately I've been thinking how much I miss my lady
Amoreena's in the cornfield brightening the daybreak
Living like a lusty...
Holding all the pictures that my life's drawn
I never find I'm missing love
Remembering all parades that had been rained on
If you were me
And I was you
If you had to play my part out

We've moved on six miles from where we were yesterday
And yesterday is but a long long ways away
So we'll camp out tonight beneath the bright starlight
And forget rotten peaches and the places we've stayed
I left from the dockland two years ago now
Made my way over on the S.S. Marie
And I've always had trouble wherever I've settled
Rotten peaches are all that I see
Rotten peaches rotting in the sun
Seems I've seen that devil fruit since the world begun
Mercy I'm a criminal, Jesus I'm the one
Rotten peaches rotting in the sun
There ain't no green grass in a U.S. state prison
There is no one to hold when you're sick for your wife
And each day out you'll pick, you'll pick rotten peaches
You'll pick rotten peaches for the rest of your life
Oh I've had me my fill of cocaine and pills
For I lie in the light of the Lord
And my home is ten thousand, ten thousand miles away
And I guess I won't see it no more
