Thrift Store Suitcase - The Mulligan Brothers

Composed by:William Ross Newell

I woke up this morning and wanted to throw myself away

Tried to sell my soul

But it turns out it just ain't worth much these days

The sun cut through the curtains

And awoke me from a sleep

My dreams cut through the daytime

And the sour through the sweet

And the papers came

And said today would be like every other day

And I just could not go back home this way

Now I'm sitting on a thrift store suitcase

Not a nickel on my name

With holes in my heart and in both of my shoes

Just waiting on a train

The old man over my shoulder says

You'll have to find another way I fear

To run from all your blues boy

There ain't no train that comes through here

The old man looks like Jesus

Says I get that all the time

But if I were I'd leave the coast

And throw away my cardboard sign

He said I looked like an old friend

He'd lost somewhere down the line

And that if I were his friend

And if he were the Lord he'd turn the ocean into wine

He said I had a family down in New Orleans that just

Lived beyond my means

I thought I'd just go out and find my scene

Now I'm sitting on a thrift store suitcase

Not a nickel on my name

With holes in my heart and in both of my shoes

Just waiting on a train

You can watch the sun chase off the moon

A million times I fear

Before you run from all your blues boy

Ain't no train been through in years

Amazing grace no matter just how sweet the sound may be

Might save a wretch

But not the chronically unsatisfied like me

When my suitcase washes up to shore

You might find what I was looking for

But I don't need it anymore

I don't need this anymore

I was sitting on a thrift store suitcase

Not a nickel on my name

With holes in my heart and in both of my shoes

Just waiting on a train

Old man says you oughta go back home boy

Before we both catch our death out here

I know that'll be the day I catch the only train that

Comes through here

He said go home all these days turn in to years

Listen to an old man

Who knows that you can't get back home from here
