lyrics

My cattle are escaping
Nobody tells me a thing
How can I corral them?
Nobody tells me a thing

I know they're laughing when I turn my back
Don't they remember my mom and my dad?

My friends back in the city
Nobody tells me a thing
They don't think I have it in me
Nobody tells me a thing

(Do you remember days kept in by the rain
On the sleeping bag with the old rodeo scene?)

I could give up
I could blame the wintery air
But where will it stop?
I fear wherever I go
I will find myself there

I came to turn it over
Nobody owes me a thing
But I'm so alone here
Nobody owes me a thing
It's wild out in the garden
Nobody's tells me a thing
Inching toward my doorstep
Nobody tells me a thing
I wake up in the darkness
Nobody tells me a thing
The stars are in the millions
Nobody tells me a thing
How can I corral them?
Nobody told me a thing
