Lyrics

Picked a couple pockets that night in Italy
It was just enough to get by for a
vagrant refugee
You were trading a few stories about where you all would be
When you’re only twenty-one I guess all the world is green
You were dreaming of a highway on an endless stretch of land
Said “Soon I’ll be a trucker, boys that’s the only plan
And I have heard in Canada, every woman she is blonde
One is waiting for me there, so it’s best I move along”
Feel the heat of the gun
There are no thoughts
You just run
Say “Hello world, I’m coming for ya”
Took the big wheels in and traded out the caravan
You were taken by the language but they were always making fun
Back home they did the same thing when you used your mothers tongue
If you make an honest dollar it don’t matter where you live
After you buy the bread someone
syphons off the rest
Feel the heat of the gun
There are no thoughts
You just run
Say “Hello world, I’m coming for ya”
Took the big wheels in and traded out the caravan
Took the big wheels in and traded out the caravan
Floating in the eddy as the river moves along
Did just what you said still you’re barely getting on
