When It Comes

I started up my hollow Piece of wood to follow A day that doesn't come, to the lucky And I realize there's tomorrow But I would rather wallow In the rain than moods that seem so potluck-why Well I'm cruising up a sale In my off-white coupe back '65 Oh I'm cruisin' down my own street And my hoopty says to me "You better hang on to your benchseat, I'm gonna take you for a ride." And, I'll let you know When it comes, when it comes I'll let you know But don't stay up for me Don't wait up for me if I'm not home, yeah So I wait for fate to find me A ball of string unwind me Uncomfortable as a centerfold, yeah And I realize you're behind me To help and humankind me To see my songs can be retold Well, I'll be gone tomorrow, Yes, I'm on the road tomorrow So, next time that I see you in school It won't be for too long And I'll let you know When it comes, when it comes I'll let you know But don't stay up for me Don't wait up for me if I'm not home, yeah I want a leather jacket But only if I have the time Well I'll comb my hair like Elvis And grab an Old Crash '59 And you'd hardly recognize me If you saw me from behind And I'll let you know When it comes, when it comes I'll let you know (I'll let you know) And I'll let you know, yeah When it comes, just when it comes I'll let you know (I'll let you know) But don't stay up for me Don't wait up for me if I'm not home, yeah Yeah And I'll let you know, yeah I'll let you know, yeah I'll let you know
