Текст песни 3,000 Miles - Live / 2000 - Ellis Paul

My name is Robert Wilson
I′m from Eau Claire, Wisconsin
I've been living out of a
Suitcase now for fourteen days
I walked the boulevard in hollywood
I caught a vegas show that was no good
Met a dancer there who starred in a broadway play
But it′s a lonely world from this greyhound
Oh believe me, I've been here fourteen days
Three thousand miles
I've come long long way
Three thousand miles
Now twenty-one is as good a guess as any age that I′d confess to
Let′s just say I'm old enough to get away
Back in school, I found the only written truth
On bathroom stalls and telephone booths
I studied awhile, but college got in my way
I′ve learned much more from the back of this greyhound
Oh believe me, I've been here fourteen days
Three thousand miles
I′ve come a long, long way
Three thousand miles
Have you seen?
The world outside is turning
And it's yours
We were put here for the learning
People talk to themselves on greyhounds
Even the driver strains to hear
They tell the same forgotten story
Will it fall on forgetful ears?
Three thousand miles
I′ve come a long, long way
Three thousand miles
Down in Houston on comes a woman
With two kids and a bottle of booze
And she cracked them both like match heads
Whenever they ventured too close to her fuse
And I sat with a girl from Boston
Have us playing cards for cigarettes
I lost her name with the poker game
Though her name I will never forget
You never forget the view of these windows
Believe me, I've been here fourteen days
(Three thousand miles)
I've come a long, long way
(Three thousand miles)
I′ve come a long, long way
(Three thousand miles)
Come a long, long way
(Three thousand miles)
I′ve come a long, long way
Three thousand miles
Three thousand miles
