What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
He had 3 whole dollars,
2
A worn out car
3
And a wife who was leaving for good
4
Life's made of trouble,
5
Worry, pain and struggle
6
She wrote 'good bye' in the dust on the hood
7
They found a map of Missouri
8
Lipstick on the glass
9
They must of left in the middle of the night
10
And I want to know the same thing
11
Everyone wants to know
12
How's it going to end?
13
Behind a smoke colored curtain,
14
The girl disappeared
15
They found out that the ring was a fake
16
A tree born crooked,
17
Will never grow straight
18
She sunk like a hammer into the lake
19
A long lost letter and
20
And old leaky boat
21
Promises are never meant to keep
22
And I want to know the same thing
23
I want to know
24
How's it going to end?
25
The barn leaned over,
26
The vultures dried their wings
27
The moon climbed up an empty sky
28
The sun sank down,
29
Behind the tree on the hill
30
There's a killer and he's coming through the rye
31
But maybe he's the father,
32
Of that lost little girl
33
It's hard to tell in this light
34
And I want to know the same thing
35
Everyone wants to know
36
How's it going to end?
37
Drag your wagon and your plow,
38
Over the bones of the dead
39
Out among the roses and the weeds
40
You can never go back,
41
And the answer is 'no'
42
And wishing for it only makes it bleed
43
Joel Tornabene,
44
Was broken on the wheel
45
Shane and Bum Mahoney on the lamb
46
The grain was as gold,
47
As Sheila's hair
48
All the way from Liverpool, with all we could steal
49
He was robbed of twenty dollars
50
His body found stripped
51
Cast into the harbour there and drowned
52
And I want to know the same thing
53
We all want to know
54
How's it going to end?
55
The sirens are snaking,
56
Their way up the hill
57
It's last call somewhere in the world
58
The reptiles blend in,
59
With the color of the street
60
Life is sweet at the edge of a razor
61
And down in the first row,
62
Of an old picture show
63
The old man is asleep, as the credits start to roll
64
And I want to know the same thing
65
We all want to know
66
How's it going to end?
67
And I want to know the same thing
68
We all want to know
69
How's it going to end?
70
And I just want to know the same thing
71
I want to know
72
How's it going to end?
