| And now the gravity of trouble
|
| Was more than I could bear
|
| At times my luck was so bad
|
| I had to fold my hands
|
| Almost lost my soul
|
| Rarely I could find my head
|
| Wake up early in the morning
|
| Feeling nearly dead
|
| I was never afraid of danger
|
| Took trouble on the chin
|
| Mountains I have climbed
|
| That have killed a thousand men
|
| I spent most of my lifetime downtown
|
| Sleepin' behind the wheel
|
| Never needed anybody
|
| I was king of the hill
|
| Ooh, when I think about the old days
|
| Ooh, it sends chills up and down my spine
|
| Yeah, life ain’t what it seems
|
| On the boulevard of broken dreams
|
| Guess I opened my eyes
|
| In the nick of time
|
| 'Cause it sure felt like
|
| The end of the line
|
| No matter how hard I run
|
| I just can’t get away
|
| I try to do my best
|
| But the Devil gets in my way
|
| Spent most of my lifetime downtown
|
| Sleepin' behind the wheel
|
| Till it all came down
|
| To kill or be killed
|
| Ooh, when I think about the old days
|
| Ooh, it sends chills up and down my spine
|
| Yeah, life ain’t what it seems
|
| On the boulevard of broken dreams
|
| Guess I opened my eyes
|
| In the nick of time
|
| 'Cause it sure felt like
|
| The end of the line
|
| Just like the end of line |
