   All my  daydreams are  disasters
   She's  the one, I think  I love
   Rivers  burn, men run  backwards
   And for her,  that's enough
   They  all come from New  York City
   They  woke me up at  dawn
   She  walked with me to  the fountain
   She held onto  my arm
   C'mon do what you did
   Roll me under  New Madrid
   Shake my baby and please bring  her back
   His death won't even be still
   Carum's over  the landfill
   Buries us all  in it's broken  back
 same chords as first verse)
  There's a man conviction
  And although he's getting old
  Mr. Browning has a prediction
  We've all been told
  So come on back to New York City
  Roll your trucks in at dawn
  Walk with me to the fountain
  And hold onto my arm
  last chorus ends like this
