I got ugly clothes and my windows down
Oh when the fall winds blow, I'm gonna leave this town
I had an old man doctor with a strong right hand
Oh when he closed that shop up, he left the locks open
Now, no matter where I go
I'm always being told
Baby come on and take my hand in the night
What do you got to keep you hanging round?
When the tide is rising
And the moon is bright
We can turn that wheel of fortune around
We can turn that wheel of fortune around
Had a job out west, playing background scene
Oh when I cash my check, I crashed the slot machine
I met a game show quiz man, and his boyfriend too
Oh but his card said nothing, where to look for you
Now, I've got to feel again
Your heartbeat on my skin
Baby come on and take my hand in the night
What do you got to keep you hanging round?
When the tide is rising
And the stars are bright
We can turn that wheel of fortune around
We can turn that wheel of fortune around
At night when I'm trying to sleep
I see your trail of waste blowing in slow motion
I try, but I can't touch your face
I hold it next to me
And I wake up, no
And I know one day you'll walk my way
Just smiling as you say
Baby come on and take my hand in the night
What do you got to keep you hanging round?
When the tide is rising
And the stars are bright
We can turn that wheel of fortune around
We can turn that wheel of fortune around
