She told me her name was Cymbeline I met her at the corner of Church and Queen She was selling lies and other painted things I hardly even noticed when she touched my ring She sold me a camera for a song A silver instamatic made in Bonn Careful with my heart its not very strong She wrote that on the border when I was gone She said that shes going home And she wont be long Half a mile from Texas She looked at me and said Everybody wants you when youre dead I can drive for hours when Im wrong She said it like a preacher before the throng Careful with your lifeits not very long We struggle for a moment and then were gone I think Ill take her bishop with my queen The glass is nearly empty and shes asleep Somewhere in my mind I think I see her weep Perhaps Ill check the silver before I leave
