Come On Down

My soul has a hole in it's pocket And the pennies, they leave a trail If you say you want my two cents Then, come on down And pick up what I've left behind My mind has a curtain with tattered ends And the wind just blows on through If you say you need shelter from the sun Then, come on down And rest your weary head My heart is beating to creepy tune And the shivers run up my spine If you say you need a story Then, come on down I have got one to tell to you My song that I'm singing has no end And the rhythm is like the sea If you say you got the blues Then, come on down This boat will bring you through My soul has a hole it's pocket Bad memories, they leave a trail If you say you need a fresh start Then, come on down I've found the path for you
