Lyrics for Willie (For Howard)

Wipe sand off of my shoes, wipe dust from the rails. You know why I'm yelling, but they ask anyway. One day I will be blind, like Willie at the end. Where's the dog? Where's my friend? You'll change your clothes tonight. Here comes a warm jet, it's going to be a long rest of our lives. Covered in black hair, with my tail hitting the tiles. One day I will be blind, with my tail hitting the tiles. One day I will be blind, like Willie at the end.
