Wrong Way Street |
Not an acre on the hillside |
Not a dollar to my name |
My job got shipped off far away from home |
And all the two-time bankers |
All moan and complain |
That’s enough, they’ve got enough for two |
With none left for me and you |
And all you daytime workers |
Your backs breakin' every day |
Ain’t but a passing thought in their mind |
And when you’re done a-toiling |
Sorry sir, you’re on your own |
You don’t mind this and you don’t mind that |
You surely won’t mind dying |
And the years roll down |
In this dusty town |
It’s been worn down hard |
And run away |
And there’s a girl beside me |
Lord, she’s the one I love |
But I can’t buy no flowers or a ring |
And her mama’s nice and friendly |
And her daddy wants me dead |
That’s the way things go these days |
And that’s the way they’ve been |
And the years roll down |
In this dusty town |
It’s been worn down hard |
And run away |
My restless hands are grabbing |
For a time that’s never there |
Wishful thinking got me down so low |
And of all my friends and lovers |
I’m the only one left alive |
It echoes through the halls and stairs |
And looks me in the eye |
And the years roll down |
In this dusty town |
It’s been worn down hard |
And run away |
And the years roll down |
In this dusty town |
It’s been worn down hard |
And run away |
