I've been called every bad name, some i can't name
By judges and lawyers and folks i never met
But my mother she called me walker jermaine
She said go out boy and make your own way

So i tried making boxes out in nashua
Yeah i tried laying traps up in bar harbor bay
But none of it held me and i got way
Yeah i got away good, just as gone as i could

Chorus
Every shuteye ain't sleep
I know it's so
Restless i ride in the linen
Every goodbye ain't gone
I know it's true
I'm counting out days, leaving only a few

I know it's not right to take what's not mine
I'm sure it's not right, i know stealing's a crime
But i know what it's like to see a life going down
Like gravel in a grave, one grain at a time

(chorus)

Well i been here so long i got stones for old friends
And i tell 'em my secrets and that's where it ends
The woman who named me, she's in the ground
But her walker jermaine just cannot be found
