Drifter Lyrics

Norfolk & Western Drifter

Come with me to secret places

Hidden in the snow

I hide them deep below

When i crossed that bridge that

Brings me further to your door

I heard your dad - he called you a whore

Springtime came

All of your neighbors whispered

When you walked by -

Wondering "who's the guy?"

When i held your hand they assumed

I'm the one to blame

I let them think the same

I'm just passing through

So i'll take the slings and arrows too

You'll be innocent at the pew

At nightfall i left without a trace

With no goodbyes

It's time to part with the new disguise
