Alamagordo by Naysayer, The Lyrics
Started in west Texas
Ill-begotten walk
Wasn't until Alamogordo
That we could barely talk
I said I wanted a compass
He sweetly squinted his eyes
And started a directionless
Beneath the sweltering sky
Finders keepers
Losers weepers
Gypsum, jetsam, flotsam
Began to fill my mouth
I read somewhere
I tripped and fell
I think I was rolling south
The one who came and saved me
Seventy-six years old
Papery white and blue-veined arms
That certainly took hold
Finders keepers
Losers weepers
Finders keepers
Losers weepers
I said, finders keepers
Is what I said to him
Finders keepers
I’m giving myself to Jim
Ill-begotten walk
Wasn't until Alamogordo
That we could barely talk
I said I wanted a compass
He sweetly squinted his eyes
And started a directionless
Beneath the sweltering sky
Finders keepers
Losers weepers
Gypsum, jetsam, flotsam
Began to fill my mouth
I read somewhere
I tripped and fell
I think I was rolling south
The one who came and saved me
Seventy-six years old
Papery white and blue-veined arms
That certainly took hold
Finders keepers
Losers weepers
Finders keepers
Losers weepers
I said, finders keepers
Is what I said to him
Finders keepers
I’m giving myself to Jim
