I fell out of bed
A terrible thought
bounced a path
straight across the room
Throwed out the coffee to drink the soap
I run cuz I have to know
Down by the riverside
in the shade of the piney tree
I throw down my head & cry
I know what the whole world needs
turpentine!
(Turpentine is fine)
Train on the water
the river shakes
Flood out the valley
a big ole snake
Hear it breathe
Feel it shake
The sound it makes
is a wild wind
Turpentine!
(Turpentine is fine)
Call out to me if you see that train
trailed by the whiff of a turpentine
I know what I know
and I knew what I'd see
the kind of a woman that she meant to be
Down by the riverside
in the shade of the piney tree
I throw down my head & cry
I know what the whole world needs
turpentine!
(Turpentine is fine)
