lyrics

throw away my electric guitar
throw away all my pretty clothes, too
throw away my prairie fire
throw away all my pills and my perfumes

tell my brothers i ain't born to wander
and i am cutting off my hair
tell everybody there's a new song coming
and soon they're gonna sing it everywhere
and it goes

throw away the terrible eye
i been living for awhile in my little white room
i been living in a kingdom of light
you can tell everybody that I'm coming home soon

tell my brothers i ain't born to wander
and i am cutting off my hair
tell everybody there's a new song coming
and soon they're gonna sing it everywhere
and it goes
