When you grow up on blue highways

And that's what you call home

All the people would stop and stare

At this old orphan of the road



In the beginning they did not believe me

But they believe me now

Tell my mama and tell my papa

I wish they could see me now



I'm coming back

For the resurrection

For the resurrection

I'm coming back

For the resurrection

For the resurrection



You're an outcast in a land of strangers

And that'a a cardinal sin

Make a break for the outside world

And they won't let you in



If you get lost out on Coney Island

Tell all my friends hello

That's where I learned the rules of the game

They taught me all I know



I'm coming back

For the resurrection

For the resurrection

I'm coming back

For the resurrection

For the resurrection



You were drowning in a sea of laughter

Tears were in your eyes

When you found out what you were after

I could see your spirit rise



I'm coming back

For the resurrection

For the resurrection

I'm coming back

For the resurrection

For the resurrection
