Lyric Whistle Down the Wind

(Tom Waits)
I ve grown up here now
All of my life
But I dreamed
Someday I d go
Where blue eyed girls
And red guitars and
Naked rivers flow

I m not all I thought I d be
I always stayed around
I ve been as far as Mercy and Grand
Frozen to the ground
I can t stay here and I m scared to leave
(Just kiss me once and then)
I ll go to hell
I might as well
Be whistlin down the wind

The bus at the corner
The clock s on the wall
Broken windmill
There s no wind at all
I ve yelled and I cursed
If i stay here I ll rust
I m stuck like a shipwreck
Out here in the dust

Sky is red
And there world s on fire
And the corn is taller than me
The dog is tied
To a wagon of rain
And the road is as wet as the sea
And sometimes the music from a dance
Will carry across the plains
And the places that I m dreaming of
Do they dream only of me?
There are places where they never sleep
And the circus never ends
So I will take the Marley Bone Coach
And whistle down the wind
