Prayin' on the north wind Lead me to my door Thumbing through my green backs Swearin' I made more Some cruel nightly cycle Leaves me cryin' on a motel floor But I don't cry for you anymore For many a dark hour I look up to the sky Many unkind thoughts are laid Upon my hazy eyes Sometimes I get to thinkin' Why wait around to die? But I don't think of you So I get by Every day it seems My whole damn life's just a codeine dream But I don't dream of you anymore ♪ The sun is gone away now Green grass turns to brown Every December gets a little bit harder Lay that bottle down It's more than just the weather That plagues this prairie town But I won't be seeing you When I come 'round Every day it seems My whole damn life's just a codeine dream But I don't dream of you anymore
