The Loner / Cinnamon Girl / Down by the River Lyrics

He's a perfect stranger
Like a cross of
himself and a fox
He's a feeling arranger
And a changer of the
ways he talks
He's the unforseen danger
The keeper of the
key to the locks
Know when you see him
Nothing can free him

Step aside, open wide
It's the loner

If you see him in the subway
He'll be down at the
end of the car
Watching you move
Until he knows he
knows who you are
When you get off at
your station alone
He'll know that you are

Know when you see him
Nothing can free him
Step aside, open wide...

I wanna live with a
cinnamon girl
I could be happy
The rest of my life
With a cinnamon girl

A dreamer of pictures
I run in the night
You see us together
Chasing the moonlight
My cinnamon girl
Ten silver saxes,
A bass with a bow
The drummer relaxes
And waits between shows
For his cinnamon girl

A dreamer of pictures
I run in the night
You see us together
Chasing the moonlight
My cinnamon girl...

Be on my side,
I'll be on your side, baby
There is no reason
for you to hide
It's so hard for me
Staying here all alone
When you could be taking me
For a ride.

Yeah, she could drag me
Over the rainbow,
Send me away
Down by the river
I shot my baby
Down by the river
Dead.
You take my hand,
I'll take your hand
Together we may get away
This much madness is
Too much sorrow
It's impossible to
make it today.

Yeah, she could drag me
Over the rainbow,
Send me away
Down by the river
I shot my baby
Down by the river
Dead.

Be on my side,
I'll be on your side, baby
There is no reason
for you to hide
It's so hard for me
Staying here all alone
When you could be taking me
For a ride.
