Words and structure:
Intro
Verse
At the station, at the border an egression to the exterior law and order
Upward plantation
Verse (with intro riff)
I remember your red dress
Like a field full o' poppy
It was making me dreamy
Stunned by a love got to do what your head says
Could not let it stop me
Chorus: x2
They got one leaving today
They got one leaving today
They got one leaving today
And it's going away
Verse: (with intro riff again)
Got my feet in the stirrup
It can be kind of banal
But I dream of your red dress
Riding down these dry canals
Oh baby it's not europe
Verse with different lead:
But I'm sending you money
I'm sending you lots of money
So you can buy a ticket
You will be my martian honey all the day
Chorus:
They got one leaving today
They got one leaving today
They got one leaving today
And it's going away.
