Lyrics

I woke in the morning, wandering, weary and worn out
I woke in the morning, wandering, weary and worn out
Wishing my long lost lover
Would walk to me and talk to me, tell me what it's all about

I was standing at the side road, listening to the billboard knock
Standing at the side road, listening to the billboard knock
Well, my wrist was empty, but my nerves were kicking
Ticking like a clock

If I got anything you need, babe, let me tell you in front
If I got anything you need, babe, let me tell you in front
You can come to me sometime
Night time, day time, anytime you want

Sometimes I'm thinking I'm too high to fall
Sometimes I'm thinking I'm much too high to fall
Other times I'm thinking I'm so low
I don't know if I can come up at all

Black crows in the meadow, sleeping across the broad highway
Black crows in the meadow, across the broad highway
Though it's funny, honey, I'm out of touch
Don't feel much like a scarecrow today
