1
Somewhere far away where I roam
2
There live my buffalo twin in our twin buffalo home
3
He calls me by my native name
4
And takes good care of my native son
5
He even lets us drink spring water on Sundays 2.99 a gallon
6
And somewhere further down the road where I also roam
7
There lives my caterpillar cousin beneath a fancy engraved tomb head stone
8
In the middle of his southern town
9
Beneath a cemetery burial plot
10
He don't pay rent no more
11
But he sure likes the spot
12
But in the furthest place I've ever known
13
Where even I so rarely roam
14
There lives a boy who just come back from war
15
His flesh was wounded but he made it back home
16
His mother calls him by his given name
17
And the neighbors whisper how he prefers to be alone
18
And he gets nightmares about boys dripping blood sold for 2.99 a gallon
19
But when I get me all real tired
20
And I got no more strength to roam
21
I catch me a horse driven carriage ride
22
From a local man named Ethan Frome
23
He don't say much as he tips his hat
24
And he carries his body as heavy as lead
25
And he could have been flying through the snow on his sled
26
But he wife was in bed and the horses had to be fed
27
Besides it's 2.99 a story
28
Pay up it's just 2.99 a story...
29
2.99 a gallon
