lyrics

Merman Jack went to Railroad Frank
To share with him his dream
He saw a man from New Orleans
A bunch of rings on his fingers
He could walk down on guilded splinters
He said boi, I see you’re in doubt
You’re still wandering
Trying to find your route

You know a coward loves only once
Are you ready to try to love twice
With this question I bid you farewell
It’s not long before someone breaks this spell
My piano is getting cold, I can hear the bell

Railroad Frank just noded and smiled
He said that’s what I’ve been telling you all damn time
You got some work to do so go ahead
I gotta paint some rails and rest my head

Accept your inner child to become a man
I know an afghan with a big plan
No one can really help you but yourself
Take what’s in your mind put it on a shelf
Accept your inner child
To become a man
