Letra Goin' southbound Stan Ridgway

Goin' southbound

Tell not a word that you heard it here
But theres a big truck waitin tonight at the pier
Comin in on an east-bound boat
Now, dont be late for deliverycchere, put this in your coat
Its a strange weight from an exotic locale
Dont worry about the cops, cause theyre in on it, pal
Just pick it up no later than tonight at three oclock
And bring it to the warehousecchere, put this in your sock

No one left to save you
Nobody will return
You run so fast, you catch on fire
Youve just gotta burn
Yeahcc

Chorus:
Goin southbound
Follow that sound
Long line of cars
Just a-movin out of town
Youve got this job
But you dont know how
And everybody does
What nobody will allow

Full moon shines like a big cue ball
Someone fishin on the pier, might as well stall
Repaint the car, change your license plate
How ya spell relief? must be somethin that you ate

All this is a secret
As common as that dirt
Well rely on your expert eye
Here, put this in your shirt
Yeahcc

Chorus repeat x2

And well all be waiting so long
Wait so long
Well all be waiting so long
Wait so long, wait so long

Now if you get caught, dont tell em about me
The last one who did, well, we tied him to a tree
Out in the high desert, by an ant hill
Havent been back there sinceccguess hes swingin there still

All this is a secret
As common as that dirt
Well rely on your expert eye
Here, put this in your shirt
Yeahccyeah! yeah! yeah!

Chorus repeat x2

Goin southbound...
Were goin southbound...
Were goin southbound...
Were goin southbound...
