Riding the edge of the world, marm Back when the season had come I asked for you please not to run Why should I care what you do, marm I'm used to be made up a fool And I'm right on the edge of the world I'm feelin' the weight of the world Twisted my arm for some girls The way you dig medicine pearl A whirlpool is draggin' us both Under the continent-shelf I'd explore it with you in a second But I still can't breathe underwater With or without you I wander Down through the streets paved with gold When it seems waves crashin' hard And the undertow's draggin' me out Thunderstorms right on the way And this boy's trying hard just to stay
