Outside there's a boxcar waiting, outside the family store.

Out by the fire breathing, utside we wait' til face turns blue.

I know the nervous walking.  I know the dirty beard hangs.

Out by the boxcar, waiting.  Take me away to nowhere place.

There is a wait so long.  (So long, so long.)

You'll never wait so long.

Big shake on the boxcar moving.

Big shake to the land that's falling down

Is a wind makes a palm start blowing?

A big, big stone fall and break my crown
