Well Ive been walkin

Down a one way dirty street

Tryin to find the answers

And Ive been hopin

For a chance to meet

The rat that spread the cancer

And the lies theyve been spinnin

And the smiles theyve been grinnin

There has sure been some sinnin

But nobodys winnin

From the love theyve been buyin

And the blues theyve been cryin

Now the time keeps a flyin

Didnt turn out so sunny

When the wells dry

But they cant take the city from the

Boys lookin pretty

Now hes lookin like a pity

But I still got the fight in my eyes

Suck it dry

Cause Ive had about enough of your lies

They took the boy from the city

But they cant take the city form the

Boys lookin pretty

Now hes lookin like a pity

Cut the flesh down to the bone

But you cant get blood from a stone

They took the boy form the city

But they cant take the city from the

Boys lookin pretty

Now hes looking like a pity

Cut the flesh down to the bone

But you cant get

You cant get blo
