"Boy With a Coin"
A boy with a coin he found in the weeds
With bullets and pages of trade magazines
Close to a car that flipped on the turn
When God left the ground to circle the world
(Yeah, oh)
A girl with a bird she found in the snow
Then flew up her gown and that's how she knows
That God made her eyes for crying at birth
And then left the ground to circle the Earth
(Yeah, oh)
A boy with a coin he crammed in his jeans
Then making a wish, he tossed in the sea
And walked to a town that all of us burned
When God left the ground to circle the world
(Yeah, oh)
(Yeah, oh)
(Yeah, oh)
