In Plain View Of The Town

(album: Headin' Down Into The Mystery Below - 1978)

Looks like no matter, how hard they push
These barges are still on the ground
Must have been embarrassing for the pilot
Here in plain view of the town

And even though they pushed them over toward shore
They still ain't going nowhere
Along the river while people fish
And some just sit and stare

The sun's going down, it's almost supper
I been a working since early day
But unless the Ohio comes up a little
I guess that's where they'll stay

Listen to the now I really hit her a lick
He's really mad at it now
They had to face up to the other end
To get it off the ground

Looks like no matter, how hard they push
These barges are still on the ground
Must have been embarrassing for the pilot
Here in plain view of the town
