WITH MY EAR PRESSED TO THE GROUND

I'M ALREADY LAYING DOWN

WHEN THE TRAIN COMES 'ROUND



LIVIN' ON FRONT STREET

STANDIN' ON SORE FEET

MICROWAVE DINNER FOR TWO

DOG FOOD CASSEROLE

LANDLORD'S AN ASSHOLE

TEN DAYS OVERDUE

GOT NO A.C.

CLOTHES AIN'T P.C.

WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO DO

SOLD GRANDMA'S RING

I'D SELL MY THING

JUST TO DO WHAT I WANNA DO



SO… DON'T MAKE A SOUND

TURN THE MUSIC DOWN

AND WATCH MARY GO 'ROUND

I SAY… WITH MY EAR PRESSED TO THE GROUND

I'M ALREADY LAYING DOWN

WHEN THE TRAIN COMES 'ROUND



GOT BIG PLANS

IN A RUSTY VAN

I'M HEADING TO THE CITY LIGHTS

FORTY-SIX DOLLARS

AND A TRUCK STOP SHOWER

BEEN GETTING ME THROUGH THE NIGHTS

SPARE FLAT TIRE

DON'T CALL ME A LIAR

JUST GET ME TO THE NEAREST PHONE

SOMEDAY I'LL FIX YA

WHEN I GET MY PICTURE

ON THE COVER OF ROLLING STONE



SO… DON'T MAKE A SOUND

TURN THE MUSIC DOWN

AND WATCH MARY GO 'ROUND

I SAY… WITH MY EAR PRESSED TO THE GROUND

I'M ALREADY LAYING DOWN

WHEN THE TRAIN COMES 'ROUND



DOES THE WIND CRY MARY

OR IS IT SCARY



HERE I AM

HERE I AM

HERE I AM

HERE I AM



I SAY… DON'T MAKE A SOUND

TURN THE MUSIC DOWN

AND WATCH MARY GO 'ROUND

SO… DON'T MAKE A SOUND

TURN THE MUSIC DOWN

AND WATCH MARY GO 'ROUND

IWITH MY EAR PRESSED TO THE GROUND

I'M ALREADY LAYING DOWN

WHEN THE TRAIN COMES 'ROUND

WITH MY EAR PRESSED TO THE GROUND

I'M ALREADY LAYING DOWN
