The Jayhawks - Nevada California Lyrics

Left his day job behind
Every fool dies trying to give his back
Kicked around on the bum
Like a child I scolded
For broken toys

Can you help me to find Nevada, California
The last thing I did
Was I tried to hold her

The stationmaster is gone
And I'm your lovesick cousin that never wins
First you twist
Then you turn
You're on life's icy mountain, dear passenger

Can you help me to find Nevada, California
Can you help me to find Nevada, California
The last thing I did
Was I tried to hold her

Nevada, California
Nevada, California

The stationmaster is gone
Behind the lies you wonder
There lies a jewel
Could it be something's wrong
The love that won't talk to you
But seldom wins (or seven?)

Can you help me to find Nevada, California
Can you help me to find Nevada, California
Nevada, California
The last thing I did
Is I tried to hold her
