He had three whole dollars, a worn out car
And a wife who was leaving for good
LIfe's made of trouble, worry pain and struggle
She wrote "Goodbye" in the dust on the hood
They found a map of Missouri, lipstick on the glass
They must have left in the middle of the night

And I want to know the same thing
Everyone wants to know, how's it goin' to end?

Behind a smoke colored curtain, the girl disappeared
They found out that the ring was a fake
A tree born crooked will never grow straight
She sunk like a hammer into the lake
Long lost letter and and old leaky boat
Promises are never meant to keep

And I want to know the same thing
I wanna know, how's it goin' to end?

Barn leaned over, the vultures dried their wings
The moon climbed up an empty sky
The sun sank down behind the tree on the hill
There's a killer and he's coming through the rye
But maybe he's the Father of that lost little girl
It's hard to tell in this light

And I want to know the same thing
Everyone wants to know, how's it goin' to end?

Drag your wagon and your plow over the bones of the dead
Out among the roses and the weeds
You can never go back, and the answer is no
And wishing for it only makes it bleed

Joel Tornabene was broken on the wheel
Shane and b__ Mahoney on the lamb
The grain was as gold as Sheila's hair
All the way from Liverpool with all we could steal
He was robbed of twenty dollars, his body found stripped
Cast into the harbour there and drowned

And I want to know the same thing
We all wanna know, how' it goin' to end?

The sirens are snaking their way up the hill
It's last call somewhere in the world
The reptiles blend in with the color of the street
Life is sweet at the edge of a razor
And down in the first row of an old picture show
The old man is asleep, the credit starts to roll

And I want to know the same thing
We all wanna know, how' it goin' to end?
I want to know the same thing
We all wanna know, how's it goin' to end?
And I just wanna know the same thing
I wanna know, how's it goin' to end?
