Hold the phone You got me foamin' at the knees Saw the flame tasted sin You burned me once again Cut the cord, she's a creep I've been tryin' real hard

We'll meet again Don't know where That as you saw me go I was singing this song Keep smilin' through

I never saw the gal again Just dig my grave beside the railroad So I can hear the trains go by (Traditional, adapted by Ry Cooder) Come and gather all around me Listen to my tale of woe Got some good advice to give you Lots of things you oughta know Take

I saw the news this morning And saw your face across the screen And as I poured my coffee, I picked up a magazine But as I turned the page And looked inside There you were again (there you were) Oh these lonely times

We have heard the chimes at midnight Into the void I go Will I ever see your face again Or will blank be all I know Arriving inside Ire hurts a life I saw the mountain crumble down I saw colossus in flames I heard the ocean draining
