Rumble Seat
©Nikole Potulsky


Got the Rumble Seat rolled back
Hear the cold wind moan
I can see the train station
I can hear the whistle blow

VERSE 1
Outside of town we’ve got us a Marie Laveau
You can get your palm read. You can have your fortune told.
Me and the girls, we just gotta know
What’s coming next year, what's coming tomorrow

CHORUS
Got the Rumble Seat rolled back
Hear the cold wind moan
I can see the train station
I can hear the whistle blow


VERSE 2
Marie’s house wasn’t no hollow log
She didn’t have no one eyed cats, no three legged dogs
Outside was a pretty child playing in the yard
Said go on in, let my mama read your cards

CHORUS
Got the Rumble Seat rolled back
Hear the cold wind moan
I can see the train station
I can hear the whistle blow

VERSE 3
MaryJane, your future’s looking bleak
Your man is gonna leave you by the end of the week
Isabel, let me tell you girl, a change is coming real soon
that’s gonna rock your world

Then she looked at me leaned in, too close
Said come back tomorrow, come back alone

CHORUS
Got the Rumble Seat rolled back
Hear the cold wind moan
I can see the train station
I can hear the whistle blow

VERSE 4
By the time I saw the train, it was far too late
Those girls were in the air flying toward their fates
I started running from the dead on the railroad track
Got to Marie's house. she said I knew that you’d be back


CHORUS
Got the Rumble Seat rolled back
Hear the cold wind moan
I can see the train station
I can hear the whistle blow
