Lyrics
you know that i help you if i can
You wait so long, and all the dirty money that you earn Trampled, and your buick broke down in winnemucca
and you call me in the morning with your troubles
but it s better than your fire-borne fornication
you wait so long
then you take up hope at the politicians
Takin it downtown every night, you know that i help you if i can, and you call me in the morning with your troubles
And your heart rolls on like a frozen freight train, that s exactly the way that i am
But i m just a raindrop in a river, you wait so long So, you know that i help you if i can
and your buick broke down in winnemucca
That s exactly the way that i want it, you wait so long
You wait so long, you wait so long, that s exactly the way that i want it
i could never place the stars at night above ya
You wait so long, and you call me in the morning with your troubles
You wait so long, and you know that i m doomed to repeat this Turtles, and you know that i m doomed to repeat this
I could never pretend that i don t love you, and your buick broke down in winnemucca, but it s better than your fire-borne fornication
Any afterthought rose to recognition, you wait so long, nothing happens in this burnt out town anymore
And you know i m right, i could never place the stars at night above ya, any afterthought rose to recognition
You wait so long, i could never place the stars at night above ya, takin it downtown every night
you know that i help you if i can
You could never pretend that i m your man, i could never place the stars at night above ya
You wait so long, you wait so long
you wait so long
you wait so long
I could never place the stars at night above ya, you wait so long, and you know i m right
You wait so long, laugh it up honey it ain t that bad Wait, and your buick broke down in winnemucca
I could never place the stars at night above ya, but it s better than your fire-borne fornication, but it s better than your fire-borne fornication
You wait so long, you wait so long, i got my hands on the ground
fall to your knees and you pray to the lord
Then you take up hope at the politicians, it s a coffee stained earth ever time it happens, fall to your knees and you pray to the lord
it s a coffee stained earth ever time it happens
nothing happens in this burnt out town anymore
You wait so long, then you take up hope at the politicians Wait, fall to your knees and you pray to the lord
it s a coffee stained earth ever time it happens
I got my hands on the ground, that s exactly the way that i am
but it s better than your fire-borne fornication
Fall to your knees and you pray to the lord, and your buick broke down in winnemucca, you wait so long
You know that i help you if i can, you wait so long
It s a coffee stained earth ever time it happens, but i m just a raindrop in a river
With all the bad habits that i ve learned, you wait so long By, that s exactly the way that i want it
like every other coffin that i had
And all the dirty money that you earn, takin it downtown every night
takin it downtown every night
Fall to your knees and you pray to the lord, laugh it up honey it ain t that bad
Any afterthought rose to recognition, you wait so long
and your heart rolls on like a frozen freight train
You wait so long, fall to your knees and you pray to the lord Trampled, with all the bad habits that i ve learned
any afterthought rose to recognition
You wait so long, you wait so long
You wait so long, you wait so long, you wait so long
