Jim White The Wintered Blue Sky lyrics

Find the list
Now do as I say
Pack your belongings
and just disappear

When you get where you're going
try to give me a go
Take care *of your troubles*
not to stumble and fall

Should the highway rise up
to swallow you whole,
remember: nobody never got nowhere
nowhere alone

Your mama, she's out again
Big sis lies awake
She's grinding the grist
of this cruel twist of faith

Life's never been easy
it sure ain't been fun
Your life's never been nothing
but a reason to run


So should the highway rise up
to swallow you whole,
remember: nobody never got nowhere
nowhere alone

See the stars burning bright out west
in that wintered blue sky
It's like a picture you wish that you could paint
though you wouldn't dare to try

Don't it shake your soul right down,
all the marrow and bone?
Don't it make your heart just ache
for something you can't own?

So as the highway flies up
to swallow you all
think of me and remember, my friend
that nobody never got
nobody never got
nobody never got nowhere
nowhere alone
