Out where the creek turns shallow and sandy 
And the moon comes skimmin' away the stars 
The wind in the mesquite comes rushin' over the hilltops 
Straight into my arms 
Straight into my arms 

I'm riding hard carryin' a catch of roses 
And a fresh map that I made 
Tonight I'm gonna get birth naked and bury my old soul 
And dance on its grave 
And dance on its grave 

It's been a long time comin', my dear 
It's been a long time comin' but now it's here 

Well my daddy he was just a stranger 
Lived in a hotel downtown 
When I was a kid he was just somebody 
Somebody I'd see around 
Somebody I'd see around 

Now down below and pullin' on my shirt 
I got some kids of my own 
Well if I had one wish in this god forsaken world, kids 
It'd be that your mistakes would be your own 
Yea your sins would be your own 

It's been a long time comin', my dear 
It's been a long time comin' but now it's here 

Out 'neath the arms of Cassiopeia 
Where the sword of Orion sweeps 
It's me and you, Rosie, cracklin' like crossed wires 
And you breathin' in your sleep 
You breathin' in your sleep 

Well there's just a spark of campfire burning 
Two kids in a sleeping bag beside 
I Reach 'neath your shirt, lay my hands across your belly 
And feel another one kickin' inside 
I ain't gonna f*ck it up this time 

It's been a long time comin', my dear 
It's been a long time comin' but now it's here 
It's been a long time comin', my dear 
It's been a long time comin' but now it's here
