Lyrics:
Oh won’t you search with me all through the night I've been digging through a junk piles most of my life And I never found nothing, but something to do And I’m doing alright now, I’m digging with you Doin' nothing in Fresno but coming down fast I ran out of ways of making it last So I paced around the house I was staying that night And I couldn’t find nothing but a broken flashlight My answer drove up in a old pickup truck By the end of the driveway she’s picking through junk I stammered, I asked her how much for that light? She said "it ain’t for sale, ‘cause I need it tonight" "Oh this is the time when us scavengers roam" She pointed to junk piles in front of each home Said "come with me, search for a light of your own And we’ll meet my friends and we can get stoned" I said "nice to meet you" when I looked in her eyes She was probably forty, she looked more like sixty-five A mother and a daughter with some stories to tell 20 years searching refuge for used things she could sell She spoke of the son, she’d left him with her sister when he was only 9 But she still sends him letters, letters, letters from time to time "And he never writes back?", "no he never writes back" I said, "I’m sure he’s fine" You say you hope he plays football I said "maybe that’s what we’ll find" [Chorus] Oh won’t you dig with me all through the night I've been digging for something most of my life And I never found nothing but something to do But I’m doin' alright now, digging with you We drove droned out suburbs, California laid to waste The way time stays steady, steady, through the tide of our tastes We found a cabbage patch doll, a pack of playing cards A torn Superman cape And she cut up all her drugs on a desk that had three legs A circle of trucks like an indian camp I eat your amphetamines and everybody danced By a fire we're building a totem of trash Stack an old fan on a play-set And a Halloween mask And a ray gun with a broken trigger Some dark sun glasses [Chorus] Oh won’t you dig with me all through the night Digging for something most of my life And I never found nothing but something to do I’m doin' alright now, digging with you [Solo] And I started to shiver, want out of my skin. Too much heavy lifting in my veins paper thin. She told me "Walk to east if you must, but don't let the sun burn your eyes."And she left me an address and I swore I would write.... [Bridge] And I thank you for the story I promised to tell I know it means nothing, but I hope you’re well I’m sorry my letter, it hasn’t come still But I never wrote you and I never will (Chorus) Oh won’t you dig with me all through the night Digging for something most of my life And I never found nothing but something to do I’m doin alright now, digging with you
