[Verse 1]
Well, I'm just a stranger, I'm only a walker
I guess I am human, but sometimes I feel
Like I'm only a ghost, like I'm only a wall
And if you come around, honey
I'll probably just follow you home
'Cause it's all that I know how to do
I was born by a body, I'll die by one too
And places are nothing if they ain't got you
[Chorus]
And one day I'mma be a steamboat baby
One day I can be your freight train lady
I roll down the river and the miles won't phase me
Oh, I wish I was better at being alone
Still every night, I call you on the phone
Oh, I wish I was more than my skin and my bone
[Verse 2]
Well, I've been arranging each of my movements
And all of my gestures and trying to fool myself
Into thinking that everything's small
That nothing has reason, I woke up and cried
A convulsion of honesty brought me to life
When I thought I was gone
But I can't put a lie in the mouth of a song
[Chorus]
And one day I'mma be a steamboat baby
One day I can be your freight train lady
I roll down the river, and the miles won't phase me
Oh, I wish I was better at being alone
Still, every night, I call you on the phone
Oh, I wish I was more than my skin and my bone
Oh, I wish I was more than my skin and my bone
