How to get to Roseburg by The Weather Machine Lyrics
Found myself half-destitute in a southern wasteland
With LA on the phone and all my belongings further north
Said, "Lady A, just give me 'couple hundred to get by"
Said "I'd love to but my angels sucked my dry, they've run me dry"
The other side of fortitude's a little strung-out town
Nobody calls it heaven but I think that I might try
And hell if I'm not from there but my mother might've been
So Rosie, babe, I'm coming home
Oh, Rosie, babe, I'm coming home
Rosie, babe, I'm coming home
Rosie, babe, I'm coming home
I can't keep out another night, another night
Way back in the burning lights I should've seen it come
All the girls were all too pretty and the drinks were kind of strong
The floating voice said "son, just cut your losses while we're young"
But it's all gone, now it's all gone, so Rosie, here I come
Rosie, babe, I'm coming home
Rosie, babe, I'm coming home
Rosie, babe, I'm coming home
I can't keep out another night, another night
If I slow down for a moment, might just lay down for a day
Trade the folly of a conqueror for a philosopher king
Like water in the desert, like a face right after grief
Well I'll be fine, I'm just fine
With all those half-ripe immoralities like fruit picked off a path
Well, if I slow down for a moment, might just let a year go past
Like a temple in the mountains, like a peace you stumble on
Well I'll be fine, I'm just fine
So, Rosie, babe, I'm coming home
Rosie, babe, I'm coming home
Rosie, babe, I'm coming home
I can't keep out another night, another night
Rosie, babe, I'm coming home
Rosie, babe, I'm coming home
Rosie, babe, I'm coming home
I can't keep out another night, another night, another night, another night, another night, another oh, oh
With LA on the phone and all my belongings further north
Said, "Lady A, just give me 'couple hundred to get by"
Said "I'd love to but my angels sucked my dry, they've run me dry"
The other side of fortitude's a little strung-out town
Nobody calls it heaven but I think that I might try
And hell if I'm not from there but my mother might've been
So Rosie, babe, I'm coming home
Oh, Rosie, babe, I'm coming home
Rosie, babe, I'm coming home
Rosie, babe, I'm coming home
I can't keep out another night, another night
Way back in the burning lights I should've seen it come
All the girls were all too pretty and the drinks were kind of strong
The floating voice said "son, just cut your losses while we're young"
But it's all gone, now it's all gone, so Rosie, here I come
Rosie, babe, I'm coming home
Rosie, babe, I'm coming home
Rosie, babe, I'm coming home
I can't keep out another night, another night
If I slow down for a moment, might just lay down for a day
Trade the folly of a conqueror for a philosopher king
Like water in the desert, like a face right after grief
Well I'll be fine, I'm just fine
With all those half-ripe immoralities like fruit picked off a path
Well, if I slow down for a moment, might just let a year go past
Like a temple in the mountains, like a peace you stumble on
Well I'll be fine, I'm just fine
So, Rosie, babe, I'm coming home
Rosie, babe, I'm coming home
Rosie, babe, I'm coming home
I can't keep out another night, another night
Rosie, babe, I'm coming home
Rosie, babe, I'm coming home
Rosie, babe, I'm coming home
I can't keep out another night, another night, another night, another night, another night, another oh, oh
