Go west
Paradise is there
You'll have all that you can eat
Of milk...
Doctors have come from distant cities
Just to see me
Stand over my bed
Disbelieving what they're seeing
...
You were the love
For certain of my life
You were simply my beloved wife
I don't know for certain
How I'll live...
I've walked these streets
A virtual stage
It seemed to me
Make up on their faces
Actors took their
Places...
If I ever write this letter
The pages I could write
But I don't know where to send it
You have vanished
Heaven...
It's a Saturday afternoon romance
Between a cowboy and a fool...
A drunken meet up
In a crude saloon
A...
Ooo, jealousy
Is she fine
So well bred
The perfect girl
A social deb
Is she the sort
Climbing under
A barbed wire fence
By the railroad ties
Climbing over
The old stone wall
I'm...
How did I love you?
There was no measuring
Far above this dirty world
Far above everything
In your tower over...

Well, I lived in a town
Way down south
By the name of Owensboro
And I worked in a mill
With the rest of the \"trash\"
As we're often called
As you know
Well, we rise up early
In the morning
And we work all day real hard
To buy our little meat and bread
Buy sugar, tea, and lard
Well, our children
Grow up unlearned
With no time to go to school
Almost before they learn to walk
They learn to spin and spoon
Well, the folks in town
They dress so fine
And spend their money free
But they would hardly look
At a factory hand
Who dresses like you or me
Would you let them wear
Their watches fine
Let them wear their gems
And pearly strings
But when that day
Of judgement comes
They'll have to share
Their pretty things
