Five Dollar Bill

Lyrics

Retape it faster then
 Wayward and sitting tight
 I am a rocking chair on the porch outside
 Yeah, one, two, one, two, ready
 Wayward and sitting tight
 I am a rocking chair on the porch outside, I am a...
 Stone skipping across the night, I am a...
 Five dollar bill, yeah
 And it's getting late, I know
 But you're still undressing and the windows open, and the
 Crickets humming the night in slow
 Like the folks never will, ah (Hey)
 And aw man, the neighbors quiet
 And the dogs are sleeping for a little while, and the...
 House is creaking, and the people out with a...
 Five dollar bill, yeah
 And I'm down here looking in
 You're a magic spell at the window pane, you are...
 Pulling curtains across the day, you are...
 Tin cans and silk, huh
 And you know, it's not a lot
 It's a porch light on in the dark
 It's an old machine that creaks and sings so well
 It's boards and rusted wire
 It's elbow grease and time
 'Cause heaven knows that only time will tell
 So I'm moving in
 And when the nighttime comes
 You're a sleepless dreamer
 You're a quiet song, you are...
 Gold watch I will never pawn for a...
 Five dollar bill, yeah
 Now I'm down here looking up
 I am a weary soldier with an old tin cup, I am a...
 Lucky fool with the royal flesh, I am a...
 Too high to kill, ah
 And you know, it's not a lot
 It's a porch light on in the dark
 It's an old machine that creaks and sings so well
 It's boards and rusted wire
 It's elbow grease and time
 'Cause heaven knows that only time will tell
 So I'm moving in
 And aw man, you're looking down
 With your toothy smile
 And your hair undone, you are...
 The smooth talker of Babylon, you are a...
 Five dollar bill, yeah
 So come on, and hang my hat
 It's a wooden door and a welcome mat, it's a...
 Dusty floor, and a mangy cat, and...
 It always will be
