New Caledonia

Lately now momma times are getting pretty hard
I've been standing on the corner mama looking for a job
When I get a feel for the western wind
I think it's time to hit the road again

Katie said "God's love is for the poor"
So she took my money and walked out the door
Last I heard she was headed to the sea
Singing New Caledonia is the home for me
New Caledonia is the home for me

Oooh, I guess that you don't see it like I do
Ooho, but I've studied long and hard to be a fool

I was running for my life, I was running to be free
I got stopped for speeding in Slte Saint Marie
If I make it out west before the bell tolls for me
I won't mind dying where there's one road to the sea

Oooh, I guess that you don't see it like I do
Oooh, but I've studied long and hard to be a fool
My teeth are breaking and my hands are shaking
From trying so hard to hold on
I've tired of trying so hard to be something
That isn't worth nothing at all

I was running for my life, I was running to be free
I got stopped for speeding in Slte Saint Marie
If I make it out west before the bell tolls for me
I won't mind dying where there's one road to the sea

Katie said God's love is for the poor
But she never told me nothing I already didn't know
Maybe I'll find her, maybe we'll see
If New Caledonia's the home for me
If New Caledonia's the home
For me
