Take Me Into Town Lyrics

Well I've been waiting for the rain to break,
But I guess my waitings through,
It's been dry as a bone since 1982,

And I've been trying to protect myself,
With these possessions that I keep on these walls,
All my books and my records, but they don't give me shelter at all,

We're both smart enough to know better,
But come on, come on, come on!
Take me into town! (x2)

Oh did you see my boots when you walked in,
You know I guess this shirt'll do,
I'm broke as a monk and I could use a drop or two,

Well I know just what I'll do when I get there,
You know I saw it in a magazine, I can get so low you'll have to peel me from off of the street

We're both smart enough to know better,
But come on, come on, come on!
Take me into town! (x4)

Well I've been talkin' to the dog for days,
But you know it's just no use,
She's just sittin' like a sphinx and I can't get to the truth,

And I've been starin' at the floor for days,
Tryin' to figure out what it all means,
But I know when I'm awake and I'm dumber in my dreams,

We're both smart enough to know better,
But come on, come on, come on!
Take me into town! (x4)
