Goodbye (to All That) Lyrics - Walkabouts

Wisecracks and hijacks 

And contracts to sell 

Old wine in new bottles 

Times are the same 

Diggin' the ditch quick 

And quick to escape 

The patent is pending 

On flood tides and bones 

Goodbye 

To all that 

Goodbye 

To all that 

Brittle and hollow 

And sharp as the hills 

It hasn't rained on us 

In 25 years 

Home fires burning 

The branches of trees 

No train well 

No train has ever stopped here 

Goodbye 

To all that 

Goodbye 

To all that 

Wake it up 

Wake it up 

Wake it up 

Wake it up 

Wake it up 

Short cut to nowhere 

Long haul to desperate 

Roots in the cellar 

And bombs in the pipes. 

Don't call me river 

I'd rather be nameless 

River don't choose 

What she carries away 

Goodbye 

To all that 

Goodbye 

To all that 

Wake it up 

Wake it up 

Wake it up 

Wake it up 

Wake it up
