I got no clean clothes and my window's down
Oh, when the Fall wind blows I'm gonna leave this town
I had an old man doctor with a strong right hand
Oh when he closed that shutter he left the locks open

Now, no matter where I go, I'm always being told

Baby, come home and take my hand in the night
What do you got to keep you hanging round?
When the tide is rising
And the moon is bright
We can turn that wheel of fortune around
We can turn that wheel of fortune around

Had a job out west playing background scene
Oh, when I cash my check I'll crash this love machine
I met a game show quiz man and his boyfriend too
Oh, but his cards said nothing, well, I'll look for you

Now, I've got to feel again your hot feet on my skin

Baby, come home and take my hand in the night
What do you got to keep you hanging round?
When the tide is rising
And the stars are bright
We can turn that wheel of fortune around
We can turn that wheel of fortune around
At night when I'm trying to sleep
I see your trail of waste blowing in slow motion
I try but I can't touch your face
I hold it next to me and I wake up, no
And I know one day you'll walk my way just smiling as you say

Baby, come home and take my hand in the night
What do you got to keep you hanging round?
When the tide is rising
And the moon is bright
We can turn that wheel of fortune around
We can turn that wheel of fortune around
