Time (the Revelator) Songtext
Darling remember when you come to me,
I'm a pretender; I'm not what I'm supposed to be
But who could know if I'm a traitor?
Time's the revelator.


They caught the Cady and left me a mule to ride
The fortune lady came along, she walked beside
But every word seemed to date her
Time's the revelator
The revelator.

Up in the morning, up and on the line
Drive into Corning, and all the spindles whine
And every day it's getting straighter,
Time's the revelator
The revelator.

Leaving the valley, fucking out of sight
Think I'll go back to Cali where I can sleep out every night
And watch the waves and move the faders
Time's the revelator
The revelator.

Queen of fakes and imitators
Time's the revelator.
