Diary Song: The Indian Head

[Verse 1]
I've been in the river up to my heels
I've seen you all alone, I know how that feels
The Indian head is weighing me down
I'm up to my knees but I'm afraid I might drown

[Verse 2]
The halfway station is just left of here
Have a one-way ticket to anywhere
My eyes are burning an Indian head
The freeway is moving but the sign is still red

[Chorus]
Oh, the fences are down
The fields have blown dry
Connections are cut
And you better not try
Oh, the wheels are on fire
And the rivers have gonе
The Indian head has proved wе're wrong

[Bridge]
Tell them all about your lord
The night when your petticoat got torn
And how you begged for release
And how you begged for release, oh

[Verse 3]
Do not tie your hair in ribbons no more
Don't go to bed without opening your door
The Indian head in a jar on your shelf
Don't give it away and do not use it yourself

[Chorus]
The fences are down
The fields have blown dry
Connections are cut
And you better not try
Oh, the wheels are on fire
And the rivers have gone
The Indian head has proved we're wrong

[Outro]
And how you begged for release
And how you begged for release
