Standing on a corner
With a raggedy old suitcase by my side
Waitin' for a Greyhound bus to come
So I can take a ride
I'm gonna go as far as fourteen dollars
Will take a fool like me
Gotta find a place where I can hide
No, I must forget Marie

Standing on a corner
Feeling raindrops race down my face
Crying loser's tears
Knowing I should never have run the race
Never should have let her built a house of love
That's fallen down on me
Gotta find a place where I can hide
You know I must forget Marie

Standing on a corner
With a raggedy old suitcase in my hand
Waiting for a Greyhound bus
But I haven't got a plan
Gonna go as far as fourteen dollars
Will take a fool like me
Gotta find a place where I can hide
You know I must forget Marie
