I'll take my apron off and call it another day I've been workin' for eight dollars an hour and I can't say what I've saved It don't mean that I just stay at home wonderin' what I'm worth or where I went wrong and how I lost my way Well it feels like it's been summer since well I don't know when and I thought I'd never feel that nice cool breeze again and I'm tired of tryin' to seem like everything's ok There's no need to fake a good day in the rain Well I could go east for the winter and maybe the snow'd feel al- -right but i know that I would just keep thinking 'bout where to rest my head and that long dark rainy road back home a- -gain Blue skies will soon be seen just few and far between I'll pedal down to the beach at night and make peace with the stormy seas and you and I can both go walkin' out in the pourin' rain Wonder how we didn't see the fallen leaves Well I could go east for the winter and maybe the snow'd feel al- -right but i know that I would just keep thinking 'bout where to rest my head and that long, dark, rainy road back home a- -gain Well money's tight and it sure ain't cheap to fill the house with heat I lay here in the lonely quiet when everyone's asleep And though it might be true that I spend my time thinkin' of something new I wouldn't trade it all a- -way for a guarantee Well I could go east for the winter and maybe the snow'd feel al- -right but i know that I would just keep thinking 'bout where to rest my head oh i know that I would just keep thinking 'bout where to rest my head and that long dark rainy road back home a- -gain
