Sleep On The Floor
Pack yourself a toothbrush dearPack yourself a favorite blouseTake a withdrawal slip, take all of your savings out'Cause if we don't leave this townWe might never make it outI was not born to drown, baby come on
Forget what Father Brennan saidWe were not born in sinLeave a note on your bedLet your mother know you're safeAnd by the time she wakesWe'll have driven through the stateWe'll have driven through the night, baby come on
If the sun don't shine on me todayAnd if the subways flood and bridges breakWill you lay yourself down and dig your graveOr will you rail against your dying day
And when we looked outside, couldn't even see the skyHow do you pay the rent, is it your parentsOr is hard work dear, holding the atmosphereI don't wanna live like that
If the sun don't shine on me todayIf the subways flood and bridges break
Jesus Christ can't save me tonightPut on your dress, yes wear something niceDecide on me, yea decide on usOh, oh, oh, Illinois, Illinois
Pack yourself a toothbrush dearPack yourself a favorite blouseTake a withdrawal slip, take all of your savings outCause if we don't leave this townWe might never make it out
