the platform a train ticket in my hand
And a train just arrivin' that'll take me
as far as fourteen dollars can
But a train won't take me far
enough it never has before
I gotta find how far a memory
reaches and then go one mile more
I ain't never found a mountain that was high
enough or a hole too dark and deep
Cause if I lose her mem'ry in a bottle of wine then
she'll find me in my sleep
I think of me and that old suitcase
All the rails and jails and the cheap hotels
And when I'll ride my money up and they
won't let me ride no more
Then I'll wait by the track for a slow movin'
freight and watch for an open door
I ain't never found a moun
Then she'll find me in my sleep then
she'll find me in my sleep
