Strung out,
down in a hole
and the ocean is bleedin' salt
on the mark
So I had
this army has marched
but you found me awake, but asleep
on your porch
And don't you cry my darlin'
Nashville is forgotten
And don't you cry my darlin'
New York is the ocean
Brooklyn,
Quiet and cold when the bars close
You're stuck countin' cracks on the street
The war breaks
and you're swingin' a gun
when the bomb drops
you're stuck countin' cracks in your teeth
And don't you cry my darlin'
Nashville is forgotten
And don't you cry my darlin'
New York is the ocean
Strung out,
down in a hole
and the ocean is bleedin' salt
on the mark
