Kitty Winn (Element)

We got married in September
The baby came the next December
So I got off the road
It's the longest I've been home
Since I remember
I wake up earlier these days
To dress the kid & fix her eggs
Then we'll walk down to the park
If it's nice out
There's a swing set where she plays

I'm not out looking for something
I haven't found
You won't see mе around
I've got a family now

I used to drive all night no stopping
Likе a Batman with no Robin
& then sometime around dawn
I'd wake up with my seatbelt on
To some cop knocking
I've seen a lot of wrecks & burnouts
& nights the crowds just didn't turn out
& I've drunk myself so ill
& nearly got myself killed
More times than I would care to count

I'm not out looking for something
I haven't found
You won't see me around
I've got a family now

I watched The Exorcist again
& recognized Kitty Winn
From The Panic in Needle Park
With Al Pacino
She played his girlfriend
It felt like seeing an old friend
The way I wondered where she'd been
As I sat & pet the cat
With my wife's head on my lap
On the sofa in the den

I'm not out looking for something
I haven't found
You won't see me around
I've got a family now
