lyrics

VERSE 1:

An old man told me at the bar...
He said, Son,..
I've been where you are.
24 and lost...
Another plaster on your heart...
And an old dusty guitar...

And if i could go back some 50 years..
If I where you, I would not be here..
And wind up drinking yourself to death...
Tired wife home with your kids...
Revealing scars to old men at the bar...

And I worked hard all my days...
For my kids, and marriages that have failed...
Now I got nothing to my name...
Just my kids, but they live so far away...

CHORUS:

But you got nothing left here to keep you...
Put this run down town in your rear view and go... just go...
But you got nothing left here to keep you...
Put this run down town in your rear view and go... just go...

[GUITAR SOLO]

VERSE 2:

Another man grabbed my hand...
Ignore my friend...
He's drunk again...
74 and lost...
so many plasters on his heart, that he drinks...
Everything he can...

And if he could go back some 50 years...
and if he where you, he would still be here...
Just drinking himself to death...
Tired wife home with his kids...
Revealing scars to young men at the bar...

That's why he's got nothing to his name...
Not even his kids...
Coz, they live so far away...
And hes not worked one single day...
Not for his kids or marriages that have failed...

CHORUS:

But you got nothing left here to keep you...
Put this run down town in your rear view and go... just go...
But you got nothing left here to keep you...
Put this run down town in your rear view and go... just go...
