In the Meantime

歌詞

I'm savin' all my nickels And half of every dime I'm washin' all the blankets God knows that I'm tryin' I fixed the gate We will find each other so they say In the meantime I'm lonesome while I wait I'm lyin' to my family Of who I'm thinkin' about I had another woman Somehow she found out She always knew We'll be honest with each other, me and you In the meantime I'll break a heart or two Now I'm sellin' saws and hammers For half of what they're worth I'm dreamin' for a living I got no time for work It's gettin' hard One day we will never be apart In the meantime I'm wonderin' where you are Now I'm burnin' sheets of plywood I pried up off the floor The house is out of lumber At least for now I'm warm For now I'm warm We'll be warm beneath the Carolina moon In the meantime I should find another room I'm drinkin' from the faucet I'm lucky when I sleep I'm sleepin' in the closet I'm scared of the police What should I do? One day you will be my reason too In the meantime I'll just be passing through
