Lyrics

Poor boy peter didn't know how
To claim his miracle, lost his way
Cost him dearly, like his dad
And he lost his pride to end this way

Chorus
It's taken a long time (woo woo)
The wild horses wouldn't take me back to you (woo woo)
Get outta town and take your lazy dog with you
Your train is running late and overdue (woo woo)

I was trying to sedate him, trying not to blow
Trying not to hate him, but time was as blatant as gold
Wouldn't you know
He was clean outta feelings, nothing to say
Rings on his fingers were fake as the kisses he gave
I said have it your way

I'm just a crazy fool
Took my time thought I'd be sane, oh
I said I felt a cold
Ain't got love to choose, oh oh baby
I shouldn't have lost my head
Shouldn't have lost the meaning that I said, yeah yeah
I could have brought you home
Get you back to what we both know, yeah yeah
Oooh did I miss my cue, did ya back a fool
It's what you thought of me, oh baby

Chorus
It's taken a long time (woo woo)
The wild horses wouldn't take me back to you (woo woo)
Get outta town and take your lazy dog with you
Your train is running late and overdue (woo woo)

This place, of crazy town
Too much time for girls to feel strange, yeah
Take back your lazy hugs
There'll never be enough, no oh babe
I shouldn't have lost my head
Shouldn't have lost the meaning that I said, yeah yeah
I could have brought you home
Get you back to what we both know, yeah yeah
Oooh did I miss my cue, did ya back a fool
It's what you thought of me, oh baby

Chorus
It's taken a long time (woo woo)
The wild horses wouldn't take me back to you (woo woo)
Get outta town and take your lazy dog with you
Your train is running late and overdue (woo woo)
