1
I've been taking off and landing
2
But this airport's closed
3
And how much thicker this fog is gonna get
4
God only knows
5
Just when you think that you've got a grip
6
Reality sneaks off, it gives you the slip
7
As if you ever knew what it was
8
Takin' you down the lime
9
Tearing through the cotton fields and bus shelters
10
Of the South runnin' helter skelter
11
Down through the Mississippi Delta
12
With no place to call your own
13
Mixing up drinks with mixed feeling
14
All along the paint was peeling
15
Down to an Indian blanket on a pony
16
With no rider in the flesh and bone
17
Lookin' for his buffalo river home
18
I've been circling the wagons
19
Down at Time Square
20
Trying to fill up this hole in my soul
21
But nothing fits there
22
Just when you think you can let it rip
23
You're pounding the pavement in your daddy's wingtips
24
As if you had someplace else to go
25
Or a better way to get there
26
Tearing through the cotton fields and bus shelters
27
Of the South runnin' helter skelter
28
Down through the Mississippi Delta
29
With no place to call your own
30
Mixing up drinks with mixed feeling
31
All along the paint was peeling
32
Down to an Indian blanket on a pony
33
With no rider in the flesh and bone
34
Lookin' for his buffalo river home
35
Now there's only two things in life
36
But I forget what they are
37
It seems we're either hangin' on a moonbeam's coattails
38
Or wishing on stars
39
Just when you think that you've been gyped
40
The bearded lady comes and does a double back flip
41
And you run off and join the circus
42
Yeah you just let that pony ride
43
Tearing through the cotton fields and bus shelters
44
Of the South runnin' helter skelter
45
Down through the Mississippi Delta
46
With no place to call your own
47
Mixing up drinks with mixed feeling
48
All along the paint was peeling
49
Down to an Indian blanket on a pony
50
With no rider in the flesh and bone
51
Lookin' for his buffalo river home
52
Lookin' for his buffalo river home
