I shed my skin and in the blink of an eye, I fly, fly, fly. Tie my up in a sack and lay my head down on the track, And die, die, die. My been so sweet I just can't stand it. I must admit I've made out a bandit.
Last night's conversation with a real good of mine, wine, wine, wine. Said years of livin' and your worst mistakes forgiven, Just time, time, time. One lust for life brings world reknown, And the next guy can't get two off the ground. Earthbound.
Earthbound; the wind through the tops of the trees. Earthbound; sun nearly ninety degrees. big 'ol moon sinkin' down, think I might stick around. I'm Earthbound.
I knew once way back when--she had almond eyes and olive skin, And long hair. She was mix-breed, I was southeast Texas hayseed, We were there. Her daddy did not like my around. The love took the next train out of town. Earthbound.
Earthbound; where there's and daughters in pain. Earthbound; mama's boy walkin' in the rain. Earthbound; like a ship run aground, think I stick around. I'm Earthbound.
With each new day that passes I'm in of thicker glasses, But all okay. Some day be leavin', but I just can't help believin' it's not today. (hey) Every golden moment I have found done my best to run right in the ground. Earthbound.
Earthbound; see the sky big and blue. Earthbound; angels come calling for you. Earthbound; keepin' to the ground, think I might stick around. Tom Waits, Aretha Franklin, Mary Karr Earthbound; Walter Cronkite, Seamus Heaney, Ringo Earthbound; the Lama and Charlie Brown make me wanna stick around. I'm Earthbound.
