"Sarah Jane" lyrics - ROBBIE FULKS

I was young in Charlottesville
That was a long long time
Now I'm homesick and I'm poor
Poor is at least no crime
As long as I am a dollar down
Tomorrow might get better
If I could erase each place I've gone
I could stop singing forever

[Chorus:]
Oh my Sarah Jane
Long years since I've met you
Oh my Sarah Jane
How many 'til I can forget you

I went to bed in Galveston
Dreamed about Tennessee
Woke up thinking the man I was
Is not who I was born to be
Filled my pockets with shells from the bay
Kids far away need minding
I'll be home by Saturday
And put my dreaming behind me

[Chorus:]
Oh my Sarah Jane
Long years since I've met you
Oh sweet Sarah Jane
How many 'til I can forget you
