Meaulnes Lyrics - Singles - Will Oldham

And he came by the way that he walked 

And he came by the way that he walked 

And he came by the way that he walked 

And he came by the way that he walked 

And he came by the way of a half-million murderers 

And he came by the way of a long list of ironies 

And he came by the way of the road to Sioux City 

And he came by the way of the half-breeds and lesbians 

And he came by the way that he walked 

And he came by the way that he walked 

And he came by the way that he walked 

And he came by the way that he walked 

And he thought it 

Was in there but still wasn't happy, 

He knew it was less than the way that it could be 

But undaunted unshaven and an eagle in britches he 

Set out again to unveil the earth's riches 

And he came by the way that he walked 

And he came by the way that he walked 

And he came by the way that he walked 

And he came by the way that he walked 

And he came by the way that I said I was leaving, 

The way that I'd take if I really was going 

If I had a map, that is why I'm delaying 

And if it wasn't in there I'd surely be staying 

And he came by the way that he walked 

And he came by the way that he walked 

And he came by the way that he walked 

And he came by the way that he walked
