my lipstick

jumped ship

to a styrofoam cup

with the coffee gone

the conversation strong

all I got left to give

baby, is up

but sentiments like shadows grow

oh so long



guess I gotta go

don't get up

don't cry

it's really very simple

just kiss my cheek and say goodbye

I never really go anywhere anyway

I just pass through from time to time



bye bye baby

baby bye bye

maybe I'll see you

next time I'm in town

maybe when I'm through

falling off the face of the earth

I'll come back around

you know I love to come back around



ten hours of driving

will make your mind

kind of numb

but it's better than

ten dollars an hour

slamming a hammer on my thumb

and it's better than

five dollars an hour

selling people shit

I wouldn't buy myself

at least at the end of the day

I'm always somewhere else



bye bye baby

baby bye bye

maybe I'll see you

next time I'm in town

maybe when I'm through

falling off the face of the earth

I'll come back around

you know I love to come back around
