Envelope
One step up, two steps back
Four good wheels, one bad track
I tell you this, I miss the famine or feast
At least, we got to eat .
I got one, and I lost three
The lost and found was full of me
What went up, came right down
It's hard to grow, below the ground
Oh, but sit down on the bed for a minute
I got me an envelope with somethin' in it
Now, close yer eyes, and open up the letter
See, I got me a break that's finally gonna matter
I'll finally make you proud
And we'll finally leave this town
I know you reap what you sow
But what I don't know is, when will I show
Some sign I have paid for my errors
My bad seed cannot grow forever
Oh, but sit down on the bed for a minute
I got me an envelope with somethin' in it
Now, close yer eyes, and open up the letter
See, I got me a break that's finally gonna matter
I'll finally make you proud
And we'll finally leave this town
Oh, do you ever pin your hopes
On the promised land of the western coast?
I daydream every day about writin' the song
That'll pay our way away
One for the money, one for the show
One for the head, and one for the soul
And one more, is all that I ask for
This time, I'm makin' it last for you
And you, you better .
Oh, but sit down on the bed for a minute
I got me an envelope with somethin' in it
Now, close yer eyes, and open up the letter
See, I got me a break that's finally gonna matter
I'll finally make you proud
And we'll finally leave this town
Four good wheels, one bad track
I tell you this, I miss the famine or feast
At least, we got to eat .
I got one, and I lost three
The lost and found was full of me
What went up, came right down
It's hard to grow, below the ground
Oh, but sit down on the bed for a minute
I got me an envelope with somethin' in it
Now, close yer eyes, and open up the letter
See, I got me a break that's finally gonna matter
I'll finally make you proud
And we'll finally leave this town
I know you reap what you sow
But what I don't know is, when will I show
Some sign I have paid for my errors
My bad seed cannot grow forever
Oh, but sit down on the bed for a minute
I got me an envelope with somethin' in it
Now, close yer eyes, and open up the letter
See, I got me a break that's finally gonna matter
I'll finally make you proud
And we'll finally leave this town
Oh, do you ever pin your hopes
On the promised land of the western coast?
I daydream every day about writin' the song
That'll pay our way away
One for the money, one for the show
One for the head, and one for the soul
And one more, is all that I ask for
This time, I'm makin' it last for you
And you, you better .
Oh, but sit down on the bed for a minute
I got me an envelope with somethin' in it
Now, close yer eyes, and open up the letter
See, I got me a break that's finally gonna matter
I'll finally make you proud
And we'll finally leave this town
