verse 1 Marianne I don't wanna wait The chapel's full but the preacher's late There's flies around our cake, shut the door My daddy came from a different world I knew enough when his lips curled Nobody visits anymore Chorus I watched the faces for a long time I filled the poison to the water table line I know there would fall the grace of God Still feels good to curse the odds of knowing what to do With this old town and you Interlude (x2) verse 2 LBJ didn't start the war He just limped home wondering what he lost it for I packed our bags, don't you hesitate We'll go north or we'll go west to a place we can reach for our better best Bring your mama's quilt and let 'em burn the rest Chorus I watched the faces for a long time I filled the poison to the water table line I know there would fall the grace of God Still feels good to curse the odds of knowing what to do With this old town and you Solo (x4) Bridge We'll be gone again before it gets too far And this time, I won't look behind me We'll be gone again and I know what I'll do When it's time to choose between this town and you Interlude (x4) verse 3 Marianne I don't wanna wait The chapel's full but the preacher's late There's flies around our cake, shut the door
