Goodbye to Oakland

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I got two dollars and fifty-one cents

eighteen matches, a lighter, two pens

and a beat up copy of Cannery Row

five hundred miles left to go

everywhere I go I'm looking down

watching my old tennis shoes as they're wearing out

walking off these homesick blues

I may be drunk and lost but I'm not confused and

I know where this train is slowly going

north through K-Falls then on to Portland

I know I'm fucked up, it's stupid hoping

you'll answer phone calls, goodbye to Oakland
