Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Does your mother tell you things?
Long, long when I'm gone?
Who you talking to?
Is he telling you I'm the one?
It's a grave mistake
And I'm wide awake
[Verse 2]
Drive-in's rained out
Weatherman wet-fingers the sky
He pokes it out, he pulls it in
He don't know why
It's the same mistake
[Verse 3]
It's been a long, time running
It's been a long, time coming
Well worth the wait
[Verse 4]
We don't go anywhere
Just on trips
We haven't see a thing
We still don't know where it is
It's a safe mistake
[Verse 5]
It's been a long, time running
It's been a long, time coming
[Verse 6]
Well, well it's all the same mistake
Dead to rights and wide awake
I'll drop a caribou, I'll tell on you
I'll tell on you, I'll tell on you
[Verse 7]
You've got a boat-load of nerve
I would say you've been told
You work me against my friends
And you'll get left out in the cold
It's the same mistake
[Verse 8]
It's been a long, time running
It's been a long, time coming
It's been a long, long, long time running
It's well worth the wait
It's well worth the wait
It's well worth, the wait
It's well worth the wait
