Darling, remember when you come to me I'm the pretender and I, what I'm supposed to be But who could know if I'm a traitor Time's the Revelator
They caught the Katy and left me a mule to ride The Fortune Lady came along, she walked beside But every word seemed to date her Time's the Revelator, the Revelator
Up in the morning, up and on the ride Drive into Corning and all the spindles whine And every day is getting straighter Time's the Revelator, the Revelator
Leaving the valley, fucking out of sight I'll go back to Cali where I can sleep out every night And watch the waves and move the fader Time's the Revelator, the Revelator
Queen of the fakes and imitators Time's the Revelator
