A day that doesn't come
It won't be for too long
If I'm not home, yeah
I'll let you know, yeah
When it comes, when it comes
I'm gonna take you for a ride
But don't stay up for me
Saw me from behind
A ball of string unwind me
If I'm not home, yeah, yeah, yeah
I'll let you know
Don't wait up for me
And I realize your behind me
And I'll let you know, yeah
When it comes, when it comes
Well, I'm cruising El Paseo
If I'm not home, yeah
To see my songs can be retold
When it comes
So I wait for fate to find me
But only if I have the time
Don't wait up for me
But don't stay up for me
And I'll let you know
So pot-lucky
Well, I'll comb my hair like Elvis
You better hang on to your bench seat
In the rain then moods that seem
In my off-white coup back '65
And I'll let you know
I'll let you know
But I would rather wallow
To the lucky
When it comes, when it comes
To help and humankind me
And I'll let you know
So next time that I see you in school
And my hooptie says to me
Yes, I'm on the road tomorrow
I'll let you know
Well, I'll be gone tomorrow
And you'd hardly recognize me if you
I'll let you know
But don't stay up for me
And I'll let you know, yeah
And grab an old Gretch 59
And I realize there's tomorrow
And I want a leather jacket
Don't wait up for me
Uncomfortable as a centerfold, yeah
Or I'm cruisin' down my own street
Just when it comes
