Sugarcane Gamblers
Spending my time
Drinking Bali Hai wine
Waitin' on the snowflakes to winter
Stitching up the seams
Of a hand me down jacket
Drowning out the fire I couldn't kindle
I'm running straight into the wind
With a bag of dirt
A bucket of stones
Call me what you will baby I'm leavin'
I wait for the fields
To show what they yield
You gambled on corn and sugarcane
The world let you down
So you're headed southbound
For a new start
A new wish
A new season
A new start
A new wish
A new season
Spinning my wheels
And burning down bridges
The only day job I could keep
I was built like a spark
Burn bright till it stops
Then kneel down and ask for forgiveness
I'm running straight into the wind
With a bag of dirt and a bucket of stones
Call me what you will baby I'm leaving
You wait for the fields
To show what they yield
You gambled on corn and sugarcane
The world let you down
So you're headed southbound
For a new start
A new wish
A new season
A new start
A new wish
A new season
You're slamming down bottles
Your mind starts to wander
The money just ain't coming in
You thought about sellin'
To Uncle Sam or the devil
But never look in the mirror again
It's time to wait it out
And wait for the bank
Or leave it to faith
Call me what you will baby I'm leavin'
You wait for the fields
To show what they yield
You gambled on corn and sugarcane
Now the world let you down
So you're headed southbound
For a new start
A new wish
A new season
A new start
A new wish
A new season
A new start
A new wish
A new season
Drinking Bali Hai wine
Waitin' on the snowflakes to winter
Stitching up the seams
Of a hand me down jacket
Drowning out the fire I couldn't kindle
I'm running straight into the wind
With a bag of dirt
A bucket of stones
Call me what you will baby I'm leavin'
I wait for the fields
To show what they yield
You gambled on corn and sugarcane
The world let you down
So you're headed southbound
For a new start
A new wish
A new season
A new start
A new wish
A new season
Spinning my wheels
And burning down bridges
The only day job I could keep
I was built like a spark
Burn bright till it stops
Then kneel down and ask for forgiveness
I'm running straight into the wind
With a bag of dirt and a bucket of stones
Call me what you will baby I'm leaving
You wait for the fields
To show what they yield
You gambled on corn and sugarcane
The world let you down
So you're headed southbound
For a new start
A new wish
A new season
A new start
A new wish
A new season
You're slamming down bottles
Your mind starts to wander
The money just ain't coming in
You thought about sellin'
To Uncle Sam or the devil
But never look in the mirror again
It's time to wait it out
And wait for the bank
Or leave it to faith
Call me what you will baby I'm leavin'
You wait for the fields
To show what they yield
You gambled on corn and sugarcane
Now the world let you down
So you're headed southbound
For a new start
A new wish
A new season
A new start
A new wish
A new season
A new start
A new wish
A new season
