(2nd verse)

Twenty-four and goin' pale. Growin' out, cuttin' back.

Drew a face on a ticket stub with momma's hands and daddy's pen.

(chorus)

He's gone like the water down to NYC.

Sleepin' on the Eight-O-Two along this river runnin' down.

He's gone like the water down the depot drain.

Dissappearing in the city.

(solo on verse & chorus)

(3rd verse)

Talk all night, cook all day. Lookin' for a new place to stay.

Thinkin' hard, lookin' bad, with momma's dollar in daddy's coat.

(chorus)

He's gone like the water down to NYC.

Sleepin' on the Eight-O-Two along this river runnin' down.

He's gone like the water down the depot drain.

Dissappearing in the city.
