[Verse 1]
Lay down my head by the wayside
My worn out shoes
Quite why she went I can't decide
Yeah but I sure could use
[V2]
One plate of food steaming and hot
Clean linen ironed
On a fresh made bed but I ain't got
One salty dime, one salty dime
One salty dime
[V3 (enter Jolie Holland)]
Just close your eyes it won't take long
It won't hurt a bit
Telling myself I could be strong
Or some such brave bullshit
[V4]
Trucks are roaring by I'm a red ghost
In their tail light gleam
I'm a tumbleweed I'm a spit roast
Just turning in your flame
[Hook]
Oh my darling Kathleen
Lay down my head by the wayside
My worn out shoes
Quite why she went I can't decide
Yeah but I sure could use
[V2]
One plate of food steaming and hot
Clean linen ironed
On a fresh made bed but I ain't got
One salty dime, one salty dime
One salty dime
[V3 (enter Jolie Holland)]
Just close your eyes it won't take long
It won't hurt a bit
Telling myself I could be strong
Or some such brave bullshit
[V4]
Trucks are roaring by I'm a red ghost
In their tail light gleam
I'm a tumbleweed I'm a spit roast
Just turning in your flame
[Hook]
Oh my darling Kathleen
