Micky & The Motorcars - Seeds Lyrics

Too many times in the last few years
The street lifes been my way
I’ve been drifting around from town to town
Trying to make pay

But everyone I stop in
They just turn me away
It’s so hard to get your feet on the ground
When you’ve got no place to stay

And all I own is this old suitcase that I hide down by the track
It holds a picture of my mom and dad
With a letter that reads please someday come back
my ex girlfriend’s worn out necklace
And a book I never read
A church key and some bottle caps and a tiny bag of seeds

I tried to sleep last night but it was so damn cold and nowhere to get warm
I finally drifted off into a dream and a place that I called home
The front porch up on mountain view you’d never hear a sound
There’s just a nice warm breeze blowing through the trees
And not this cold hard ground

I started hiking yesterday I didn’t see a car for miles
my mind is wearing thin now and I’ve misplaced my smile
I wish I had the courage I'd call you on the phone
With a little luck I might get picked up and find my way back home

And all I own is this old suitcase
that I hide down by the track
It holds a picture of my mom and dad with a letter
That reads please someday come back
My ex girlfriend’s worn out necklace and a book I never read
A church key and some bottle caps and a tiny bag of seeds
