[Verse 1]
Pen the lament
And shadow your eyes
There's a vapor trail stretching
Across a Kansas sky
Dirt-lot kids making dirt-lot plans
Shuffle forward, your hat in hand
[Verse 2]
Could be the hangman
Could be the noose
Could be the engine
Could be the caboose
It pays to know on which side you stand
Shuffle forward, your hat in hand
[Verse 3]
Yeah, gold in this house
There's gold in my band
There's gold in your blouse
Honey, gold in my hand
It's a rhythm and mystery you don't quite understand
Shuffle forward, your hat in hand
[Bridge]
Run fast after everything
And that's just what you'll miss
Live your life open-armed
Or with a clenched fist
Pen the lament
And shadow your eyes
There's a vapor trail stretching
Across a Kansas sky
Dirt-lot kids making dirt-lot plans
Shuffle forward, your hat in hand
[Verse 2]
Could be the hangman
Could be the noose
Could be the engine
Could be the caboose
It pays to know on which side you stand
Shuffle forward, your hat in hand
[Verse 3]
Yeah, gold in this house
There's gold in my band
There's gold in your blouse
Honey, gold in my hand
It's a rhythm and mystery you don't quite understand
Shuffle forward, your hat in hand
[Bridge]
Run fast after everything
And that's just what you'll miss
Live your life open-armed
Or with a clenched fist
