Don't need no ticket i'm not waiting on a train,   no i'm just standing here if so i don't have to stand in the rain   if that's alright.   I chopped wood all morning watching the treetops in the mist   and a strange woman came up next to me   packing cigarettes against her wrist   and i said yes - talk to the press   But hey hey i didn't mind it at all.   This woman i loved, you know she looked me right in the eye   and said i'm going to have all your children if you get me a coffee   and a piece of pie and i said fine.   I walked her up to see the city lights,   she had me whispering in her ear   turns out she didn't know that much english,   but i was listening loud and clear and i was in deep   Oh i put her to sleep.   But hey hey ask me why i'm walking all night long   hey hey I can't even recall.   I woke up in the morning with a big surprise surprise   that girl was gone, i was alone with dewdrops in my eyes   and i was singing hey hey ask me why i'm walking all night long   hey hey been so many days from my old home   hey hey i can't even recall.
