Right On the Money (Lyrics by Chewy Marzolo)

It's a long way back to places you've only dream about,
You can't follow your footprints in the snow,
The pale orange dusk reminds of where we really stand,
The long shadows tell how far we've left to go-

Somewhere someone walks down the very same circle,
Hopes to find gold pennies to fill their due,
Blind and torn by the tears that stain the warm dust,
Heart that's pure, say the word and I'll come find you-

Chorus-
That one time she hit it right on the money,
You'll never have to work in that place again,
You and I will swim in milk and honey, (honey)
And we'll drive down California until it ends-

I'm sick to death of digging holes in the quicksand,
And coming up for air with a case of the bends,
We'll have one more before we go,
I found those footprints in the snow,
We ain't never going down this road again-

Prison fences line the road in reveries,
Between lines the windmills in their spin,
How many a soul can truly guide the great road?
How many know just where they've really been?

Chorus-
That one time he hit it right on the money,
You'll never have to work in that place again,
You and I will swim in milk and honey, (honey)
And we'll drive down California until it ends
