Walk Away

Dot King was whittled from the bone of Cain With a little drop of poison in the red red blood She need a way to turn around the bend She said I want to walk away and start over again There are things I've done I can't erase I want to look in the mirror see another face I said, "never", but I'm doing it again I wanna walk away, start over again No more rain, no more roses On my way, shake my thirst in a cool cool pond There's a winner in every place There's a heart that's beating in every page The beginning of it starts at the end When it's time to walk away and start over again Weather's murder at a hundred and three William Ray shot Corabell Lee A yellow dog knows when he has sinned You wanna walk away and start over again No more rain, no more roses On my way, shaking my thirst in a cool cool pond Cooper told Maui the whole block's gone They're dying for jewelry, money, and clothes I always get out of the trouble I'm in I want to walk away, start over again I left my bible by the side of the road Carve my initials in an old dead tree I'm going away but I'm going to be back when It's time to walk away and start over again Ho ho yeah, hmm, yeah Gotta walk away, gotta walk away, gotta walk away Just wanna walk away yeah, wanna walk away and start over again Wanna walk away, wanna walk away, wanna walk away --- Walk Away - Tom Waits
