Turpentine!

I fell out of bed

A terrible thought

bounced a path

straight across the room

Throwed out the coffee to drink the soap

I run cuz I have to know

Down by the riverside

in the shade of the piney tree

I throw down my head & cry

I know what the whole world needs

turpentine!

(Turpentine is fine)

Train on the water

the river shakes

Flood out the valley

a big ole snake

Hear it breathe

Feel it shake

The sound it makes

is a wild wind

Turpentine!

(Turpentine is fine)

Call out to me if you see that train

trailed by the whiff of a turpentine

I know what I know

and I knew what I'd see

the kind of a woman that she meant to be

Down by the riverside

in the shade of the piney tree

I throw down my head & cry

I know what the whole world needs

turpentine!
