Tarkio - Sister Nebraska lyrics

And in the midst of the explosion comin' down You sit barefoot on your porch And all the times you'd say we'd be sorry now But I'm not sorry now, I'm not sorry now You were talkin' 'bout the cornfields pa**in' by Out the window of the bus And all the times you swore that you'd get back there somehow That's just talkin' loud, never thought I'd be here now So hey there, sister Nebraska Sittin' there, sweetly pigeon-toed It's been a long cold winter Now I'm comin' home California's just a memory I've left behind Colorado come and gone The setting sun paints the rear-view mirror red As we start headin' south It'll be any day now Mountains fall away to leave us on the plains As we relax into the ride And all those unpaid bills, well, I left them all behind 'Cause I'm not turnin' back All my bags are packed Hey there, sister Nebraska Sittin' there, sweetly pigeon-toed It's been a long cold winter Now I'm comin' home This is gone and we've returned to what we left Turned to pictures packed away And I will call you up and say: "Ain't this life a riot?" And you will understand And you will understand Hey there, sister Nebraska Sittin' there, sweetly pigeon-toed It's been a long cold winter Now I'm comin' home Now I'm comin' home
