Well, we bursted out of class. Had to get away from those fools. We learned more from a three-minute record, baby. Than we ever learned in school. Tonight I hear the neighborhood drummer sound.
Pete took up Latin dancing. Sherry loved his style. We loved to laugh as they glided past. But he kicked the blues for a while. . Manny wanted to be artsy.
Hey now, where are you going?. Where are you going, to my friend?. Said, "I'm going out to find the pastures of plenty. I believe they're out there somewhere".
Train rolls by about 3 a.m.. Wakes me from a fitful sleep. Got the urge to jump on board. I believe I'm in a little too deep. . Walk the train station.
I got no time for the corner boys. Down in the street making all that noise. Or the girls out on the avenue. 'Cause tonight I want to be with you. Tonight I'm gonna take that ride.
About this time of evening, out by the bay. They turn the road lights on the bridge. A diesel rolls in silhouette, eastbound. Lovers glad the sun has set.
Oh, I wish I could laugh. When I look way back. To find out who stole all my dreams. . Whoa, I wish it was easy. To face the fact. There's nobody there but me.
I'd like to try throwing the I Ching. I'd like to try someone analyzing my writing. I'd like to see what's written on the crystal stones. And see what happens if I put on my turban.
Got a wife and kids in Baltimore, Jack. I went out for a ride and I never went back. Like a river that don't know where it's flowing. I took a wrong turn and I just kept going.
The song came and went. Like the times that we spent. Hiding out from the rain under the carnival tent. I laughed and she'd smile. It would last for a while.

Here is my hand for you to hold. Here's the part of me they have not sold. Others may come and they may go. But I love you young, I love you old. . Only you can see yeah, the other side of me.
There was a man of confused and sad nature. Thought no one loved him, that was not true. He said, he was a lost soul, didn't fit in anywhere. Didn't know where to turn or who to turn to.
Come on kids, ya'll come with me. Let's go looking for a Christmas tree. Cross the river and through the woods. I got my axe and it works real good. .
In Candy's room there are pictures of her heroes on the wall. But to get to Candy's room you gotta walk the darkness of Candy's hall. Strangers from the city, call my baby's number and they bring her toys.
There's a man workin' in a field. See's the rain and it's burning. He's saying this can't be real. Oh as he sees the color of the fields turning. . Far away them too busy getting rich to care.
Is he sane or insane. That's all they want to know. Is he crazy or strange then. If so I want to go. I've seen him leave at night. Followed him so far.
You know I think it's a funny thing. People talk without listening. People listen without hearing. I do it all the time. . You know it's a funny phenomenon.
I'm walking outside and I see you arrive. I say, "Let's go for a ride, and have a good old time". Whoa, I'm saving up lies, or just stay quiet every time.
