Craig Finn - Eventually I Made It To Sioux city lyrics

Eventually I made it to Sioux City And the [?] they shook just like a storm But the bosses all ask questions "What's your name? Where were you born?" I got scared and I walked back into the corn He said that I should call you at this number He said that he'd make sure you knew my name He said let him know you're new in town And you could really use a friend right now Tell him that you want to come and hang Last summer I met a man so evil Don't even want to think about his face I made a good amount of money In a little bit of time And he's the one that told me about this place Makes you feel so old in New York City When the train it never comes and then it stalls And the buses they just hover there And they'd move if they weren't really scared I was frightened when we pulled out of St. Paul Got jammed up on a job and shot a trooper I ran into the forest and almost starved Mom I got my picture in the paper The searchlights in the woods and empty cars But it's hard to feel [?] in New York City And the super says those girls left in the fall With no friends and no relations I walked up to penn station And I bought a ticket to St. Paul
