I guess that I could sleep like this
Under the overpass
Down past the old train tracks
I guess I could sleep like this
Dirty cigarette wrappers and drained shooters
Dished off narrow shoulders, what’s left of old-time rumors
Down in the bog, down past the clovers
I guess that I could sleep like this
Just off the highway, down the slope
Resting beneath and void of hope
I guess I could sleep like this
Must’ve been lucky, found in that field of clovers
Sunk down in the old bog far past the shoulders
All heads-up coins and good fortune aside
I guess that I could sleep like this
Belly to the earth
Where birth and destruction collide
Turned out pockets
Still hands and rolled back eyes
Drowned in the wishing well
To leave it all behind
Dirty cigarette wrappers and drained shooters
Dished off narrow shoulders, what’s left of old-time rumors
Drowned in the bog down past the clovers
I wish that I could sleep like this
