The Hinterland Band - So On and So Forth and So Long For Now

In the modern day canon
Of venerable crimes
I'm the patron saint
Of wasting my time
That's a ten dollar way
To say I've had my fill
Of watching this rock
Falling back down the hill
There's gotta be something
Out there going down
And so on and so forth
And so long for now
Think I'll start chasing
That long white line
To the land past the valley
Where the red sun shines
I'll wade in a river of silver in Spain
Where time cuts a line
Like a dog on a chain
And I'll wring my bread
From the sweat of my brow
And so on and so forth
And so long for now
I'll ice fish in Brimson
Three sails to the wind
From a hole just big enough
Not to fall in
And I won't catch nothing
But a catch in my throat
And a cold from the holes
In the pockets of my coat
But I'll be as free
As the state will allow
And so on and so forth
And so long for now
None of my goodbyes have
Been all that good
And believe me I'd say it
More good if I could
Maybe I'll see you somewhere
Down the line
With a fistful of dollars
And a belly full of wine
Until then you'll all have to
Make do somehow
And so on and so forth
And so long for now
