[Chorus]
I have a wife
And a newborn baby
And a new house at the end of Water street

[Verse 1]
It rained all day
I sat at the kitchen
Drinking coffee
Playing solitaire

[Pre-Chorus]
Hedges drink the rain
Coffee clogs the drain
The lightning blows
The dreamy Catskill flows

[Chorus]
I have a wife
And a new baby
And a new house at the end of Water street

[Verse 2]
My father walked out
Just kept on walking
In the light of an 80s moon
Sometimes I walk the tracks
But I always come right back
And feed the cats in the boiler room

[Pre-Chorus]
Hedges drink the rain
Coffee clogs the drain
The lightning blows
The dreamy Catskill flows and flows

[Chorus]
I have a wife
And a newborn baby
And a new house at the end of Water street
