I'll take my apron off and call it another day I've been workin' for eight dollars an hour and I can't say what I've saved It don't mean that I just stay at home wonderin' what I'm worth or where I went wrong and how I lost my way Well it feels like it's been summer since well I don't know when and I thought I'd never feel that nice cool breeze again and I'm tired of tryin' to seem like everything's ok There's no need to fake a good day in the rain Well I could go east for the winter and maybe the snow'd feel alright but i know that I would just keep thinking 'bout where to rest my head and that long dark rainy road back home again Blue skies will soon be seen just few and far between I'll pedal down to the beach at night and make peace with the stormy seas and you and I can both go walkin' out in the pourin' rain
Wonder how we didn't see the fallen leaves Well I could go east for the winter and maybe the snow'd feel alright but i know that I would just keep thinking 'bout where to rest my head and that long, dark, rainy road back home again Well money's tight and it sure ain't cheap to fill the house with heat I lay here in the lonely quiet when everyone's asleep And though it might be true that I spend my time thinkin' of something new I wouldn't trade it all away for a guarantee Well I could go east for the winter and maybe the snow'd feel alright but i know that I would just keep thinking 'bout where to rest my head oh i know that I would just keep thinking 'bout where to rest my head and that long dark rainy road back home again
