Lyrics
Heather (Eric Doberman) I work in a big concrete bunker up the street from where we used to live And idle away all those sweet springtime days ‘til I had nothing left I could give And folks they still ask me about you at taverns and cafes and such I shake my head say “to me she is dead” but inside I still miss you so much Heather as I go marching through life without you I remember when we used to stroll in the dew When you left me I turned to the bottle almost drowned in that Kentucky lake Every now and then I look down at my hands and I see them just tremble and shake And as for the serpent who stole you with anonymous gifts and phone calls I pray and I hope that he finds enough rope and kicks over a chair so he falls Heather as I go marching through life without you I remember when we used to stroll in the dew Another convention is over the teamsters are loading the trucks I’m too weary to ride 8 miles home but the rooms they are still all booked up Heather I could hear your laughter as the night in the city did fall Your laughter did sing like a violin string and resound off these big concrete walls Heather I’m still here marching through life Heather still alone marching through life I’m suffering, Heather, marching through life without you
