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
