once you put it down can you really let it go
twice is not enough and you really should have known
three times is such a charm but such a long, long road
fourth time you’ve gone too far and there’s no way getting home
five women working hard, they’ve got seeds to sew
six men looking on, taking in the show
seven mountains standing tall, they’ve seen it all before
eight miles high and getting higher-this train is rolling slow
chorus-
round and round and round we go
where it stops, nobody knows
and when we reach the end
get back on and ride it again
bridge/break…
nine months waiting ‘round standing by the phone
ten cents no questions asked, no information known
eleven tucked away and now you’re all alone
twelve times out of gas and how the weeds have grown
chorus-
