soda can

Kick around a soda can and wait for your plane to land

Through the dry fogged California borderline

You skipped town before the sun showed face

Ma left late, almost missed a train saying please

See the sight through

Oh what could I do

For you i'm dead bound for words to sing

You're the sparkle on the water, the Michigan lake

You're the Hudson, you're the black birds outside

Soon comes a time when the trees grow red

Birds fly south all to get shot dead
