Railroad Daisies

OFF to haunt the world with rage and beauty
skipping down THE TRACKS AGAIN
along the promenade of blazing IRON
with a crown of railroad daisies in your hair

NEVER SHOULD HAVE LEFT OHIO
FALLEN IN LOVE WITH HIM
CHASING AFTER SHADOWS
AND promises AGAIN
BAREFOOT THROUGH THE TUNNEL
THE LIGHT AND HORN
SCREAMING LOUDER THAN THE DAY you Were BORN

HOWLING In JULY'S HOLY fire
SPITTING SHELLS OVER THE EDGE
WHILE THE mean MONONGAHELA
TAKES them just BELOW THE BRIDGE

NEVER SHOULD HAVE LEFT OHIO
FALLEN IN LOVE WITH HIM
CHASING AFTER SHADOWS
AND promises AGAIN
BAREFOOT THROUGH THE TUNNEL
THE LIGHT AND HORN
SCREAMING LOUDER THAN THE DAY you were BORN

NEVER SHOULD HAVE LEFT OHIO
GONE AWAY WITH HIM
CHASING ALL YOUR SHADOWS
HIS promises AGAIN
BAREFOOT THROUGH THE TUNNEL
THE LIGHT AND HORN
SCREAMING LOUDER THAN THE DAY you were BORN
