I call him like I see him,
ain't no point in looking back
If I heard that whistle blow,
I'd jump right on the track
I'm just staring at the ground
My heart beating so loud,
the whole world could hear it pound
I just stand here in the shade
With the days that just don't end
And the stars up in the sky
You either pull it all together
Or you can kiss it all goodbye
In the road up close to Christ
Your heart sings like a ship
And the more you throw away
And I'm pulling out of town
With both hands on the wheel
When all I needed was a drop
Just as dry down at the bottom,
And I never do stop moving,
don't know why I'm still so slow
By the time I get to where I am,
And the rollercoaster cries,
Your heart sings like a ship,
And I'm pulling out of town
With both hands on the wheel
Everybody's got their secrets,
everybody's got their plans
Everybody's got that something
that just fell right through their hands
By the time that moon drops,
I'll be far up and long gone
And the roller coaster cries,
Your heart sinks like a ship,
And the more you throw away,
And I'm pulling out a child
With both hands on the wheel
