lyrics

I once knew this girl
Prettiest thing in the world
Lived in a house on a hill
Killed all her pain with her pills
Help me down, she said, but I just walked away

My mother said, don't you know
Your friends come, and they go
So, keep your back to the wind
Slow down, and take it all in
But, don't let the days burn away just like I did

(CHORUS)
I'm quickly rolling away on this ghost town train
It's all starting now to fade
Gonna take my mind to this mountain side
Keep your troubles, I'll keep mine
And, I'll hide away like the wind
Yes, I'll hide away like the wind

The weather's looking grey again
Rain cloud moving overhead
Ship on the ocean rowing home
While by the fire, I warm my bones
Kick up your feet, my love, the night is ending soon

The President waiving in the streets
Everybody's bowing at his feet
But, my chin I keep up off the ground
Farewell, I'm leaving this old town
Send my love to my father, won't you friends

CHORUS
