I Waited Three And A Half Years For A Train To Springfield, Ohio
I Gave Up And I Began To Walk, But I Was So Hungry
And Its A Damn Good Thing I Was Wearing Shoes

I Decided The Cool Thing To Do Would Be To Order Some Hallah Bread And Turtle Soup
But I Ordered A Tuna Salad Sandwich
And Some French Fries
I Mean, What The Hell's The Difference Anyway

Look, The Thing Is,
I'm Half Way To Springfield,
Like I'm In Maryland Someplace,
And The Money Runs Out
I Get Some Freelance Welding Work In Silver Spring And Then-
And This Was A Big Kick For Me-
I Put On My Hat And I Said "Sorry, Sue Ellen, But I Got To Be Moving On."
As It Turned Out, I Never Did Get To Springfield, Ohio.
Oh, But Sometimes,
Sometimes When The Moon Is Full
I Can Hear That Old Dog Howling
Howling, Like He Was Right Outside My Own Window.
