Revelator

by Gillian Welch

Lyrics
Darling, remember from when you come to me
That I'm the pretender
I'm not what I'm supposed to be
But who could know, if I'm a traitor?
Time's a revelator, revelator
They caught the Katy, and left me a mule to ride
The fortune lady came along she walked beside
But every word seemed to date her
Time's a revelator, the revelator
Up in the morning up and on the ride
I drive into Corning and all the spindles whine
And ever day is getting straighter
Time's a revelator, the revelator
Leaving the valley and fucking out of sight
I'll go back to Cali where I can sleep out every night
And watch the waves and move the fader
Time's a revelator, the revelator
Queen of fakes and imitators
Time's a revelator
