lyrics

when i was young and hungry and every sunset was new
i had to taste every bottle and fall asleep in the dew
the hills tumbled on like a river
time fluttered by just like a feather
that floated down to the coast where i saw the curve of the sea

i crossed many great nations, sleeping behind the gas stations
thumb supplicated in patience, i hummed tunes to myself
but i got tired of singing
it seemed the words had no meaning
so i just started running from here to there and back again

i ended up in the mountains where the trees sang in the wind
crouched down by the woodstove just happy having something to tend
i was as dry as boot leather
as resolute as a desert
lonely like a lake loon and happy just to stay that way, goddamn.
