Lyric Long Time Running

Does you mother tell you things?
Long, long when I m gone?
Who you talking to?
Is she telling you I m the one?
It s a grave mistake and I m wide awake.

Drive-In s rained out
Weatherman wet-fingers the sky
He pokes it out, he pulls it in
He don t know why
It s the same mistake

It s been a long time running
It s been a long time running
It s well worth the wait

We don t go anywhere
Just on trips
We haven t seen a thing
We still don t know where it is
It s a safe mistake

It s been a long time running
It s been a long time running

Well, well it s all the same mistake
Dead to rights and wide awake
I ll drop a caribou, I ll tell on you
I ll tell on you, I ll tell on you

You ve got a boat-load of nerve
But I would say you ve been told
You work me against my friends
And you ll get left out in the cold
It s the same mistake

It s been a long time running
It s been a long time running
It s been a long, long, long time running
It s well worth the wait
