Them – It's All Over Now lyrics

You must leave now

Take what you need
you think will last
But whatever you wish to keep
You better grab it fast.
Yonder stands your orphan
with his gun
Crying like a fire in the sun.
Look out the Saints are comin' through
And it's all over now
baby blue.

The highway is for gamblers
better use your sins
Take what you have gathered from coincidence
The empty handed painter from your streets
Is drawing crazy patterns on your sheets
This sky too
is folding under you
And it's all over now
baby blue.

AII your seasick sailors
they are rowing home
AII your reindeer armies
are all going home
The lover who just walked out your door
Has taken all his blankets from the floor
The carpet too
is moving under you
And it's all over now
baby blue.

Leave your stepping stones behind
something calls for you
Forget the dead you've left
they will not follow you
The vagabond who's rapping at your door
Is standing in the clothes that you once wore
Strike another match
go start anew
And it's all over now
baby blue.
