Lyrics - Gone Like The Water by Johnston Freedy

A red suitcase she'll never miss
A leather coat he used to wear
Thinking tough, looking tired
With momma's money and daddy's ring
Chorus:
He's gone like the water down to
NYCSleeping on the 802
Along this river, running down
He's gone like the water downthe deep hole draindisappering in the city
Twenty-four and growing pale
Growing up, coming back
Drew a face on the ticket stub
With mamma's hands, and daddy's pen
Chorus
Talk all night, cook all day
Looking for a new place to stay
Thinking hard, looking bad
With mama's dollar in daddy's coat
Chorus
