about

by Gillian Welch

lyrics

standing on the corner
with a nickel or a dime.
there used to be a railcar
to take you down the line.
too much beer and whiskey
to ever be employed,
and when I got to Nashville
it was too much soldier's joy.
wasted on the wayside,
wasted on the way.
if I ain't gone tomorrow,
you know I'm gone today.

back baby, back in time
I wanna go back
when you were mine.

black highway all night ride
watching the time fall away to the side.
clear channel way down low
was comin in loud, and my mind let go.

peaches in the summertime,
apples in the fall,
if I can't have you all the time,
I won't have none at all.
I wish I was in Frisco
in my brand new walkin shoes.
I'm sitting here in Nashville
with Norman's Nashville blues.
so cmon you good time rounders,
listening to my sound
and drink a round for Nashville
before they tear it down.

back baby, back in time
I wanna go back
when you were mine.

hard weather, driving slow
buddies in the house in time for the show.
oh darlin, the songs they played
is all I got left of the love we made.
