I must have walked ten million miles
Must have walked ten million miles
Wore some shoes that weren't my style
Ten million miles

I've been kind of told some lies
Like anyone who's lived or died
Like anyone who's ever tried
To walk ten million miles

I memorize

Oh, where is the daughter that I carried?
Gone to where the desert meets the sea
Far from where our family’s bones are buried
Where mother moon walks arm in arm with me

A lady’s maid for ladies who are waiting
She paints the toes, prepares a stranger’s tea
What came bef

Here on the inside looking at the outside
losing my memory faster than my pride
Here I am baby, blind as a bat outta hell
Cut me loose of that ball and chain
Packed up a glad bag hopped on a train
to the land of the lonely, as far as I can tell
I was laughing like a fool

If he was from Venus
Would he feed us with a spoon?
If he was from Mars,
Wouldn't that be cool?
Standing right on campus
Would he stamp us in a file?
Hangin' down in Memphis all the while

Children by the million
Sing for Alex Chilton
When he comes 'round

All creatures of our God and King Lift up your voice and with us sing Alleluia! Alleluia! Thou rising moon, in praise rejoice, Ye lights of evening, find a voice! Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia!

All creatures of our God and king
Lift up your voice and with us sing

All the girls in the Paris night
All the girls in the pale moonlight
All the girls with the shopping bags
All the girls with the washing rags

All the girls on the telephone
All the girls standing all alone
All the girls sitting on the wire
One by one fly into the fi

We're rocking big daddy
How bout that
How bout that
Here he comes again
Me and my friends
We all laugh at him
Cuz he's so funny
Warm and fuzzy
We're rocking big daddy
How bout that
A celebration!
A celebration!
He caught a little fish
He had

The farther I come the farther I fall
Whatever I knew it was nothing at all
Nothing at all, just making me small
Smaller and smaller
I fall back

Sooner or later with a view from the ground
Chasing the race and the races run you down
Sooner or later with a view from

Maiden said "I'll marry you
I'll be yours and I'll be true
I'll consent to be your bride
All my days, at your side
That is how I live my life"

Maiden no more

Her mother and her sister warned
The man, he was not natural born
His eyes were black and his beard wa

I went back to Boston
Back to the City of Lost Love
I went back to the place
And recognized your face in the stone long gone

I walked around Harvard Square
All the runaway kids are still hanging out there
I took the red line a wrong way
Across the River Charl

Closed down the house now on this sad affair
very last step of a thousand steps there
and will we every reach the sky now I won't care
He called me liar when I told him I loved him
and I thought it was plain as the sky above him
He called me a liar
Yeah, he called me a l

We came across the ocean for the price on the passage
Came across the ocean for one English pound
We slept in the hay bed with the sheep and the shit, yeah
We slept in the hay, me and three boys from our town

Hunger did surround us, came on like a black sea
Everything it ca

Lying round home alone
Ona rainy night like this
Starving for your love
I'm hungry for just one kiss
Every raindrop i hear
Agains my window pane
Beats so loud and clear
I swear it's speakin' your name
I got nowhere to turn
Tired of being alone
I feel like

Please pass the bottle on
Pass it on and on
Till every drop is gone
Take down another one
Swing your partner 'round
Till you lose your name
Till you're a ball of flames
A wall of fire
High as a funeral pyre
Floating like the ashes
Lining up the empty glass

It must seem like a million miles away
But that don't mean it is
I sat and I thought, and I thought, of the things I could say
And I just came up with this

'Cause honesty is hard to handle
Truth is harder than hell
Is it love or flies to a candle
As years go by it's

We wait for the bus that's going to Bangor
In my plaid dress and burgundy shoes
In your red lipstick and lilac kercheif
You're the most pretty lady in the world

The bus driver smiles, a dime and a nickel
We climb on our seats, the vinyl is cold
"Michelle ma bell

One of the dead boys, he looked like Opie
He looked like Opie, one of the dead boys.
Grandpa gave him a cup of cocoa and
Rubbed his head for luck like he always did.
All you need is a coca-cola.
That's what it takes to get the job done.
