The Rooftop 03:09
On the Rooftop by the freight line, whiskey bottle all in my hand thinking about the last time I almost made it then. A long dream that I kept, To ride that rolling steal, I think about it as I slept, how that time did feel. What's holding me back, from this dream of mine, what are the things I lack, to jump down the line. I work hard in the city, work all through night, living like this surly will kill me it just don't seem right. on the Rooftop by the freight line, empty bottle in my hand thinking about the last time almost made it then, thinking about the last time might try again.

well I'm waiting down at the station hope my bus gets here on time take me to my destination take me home and easy my worried mind I've got ten more miles left to go then another three hour ride ahead ten more miles left to go before I can rest on my own bed It's raining it's pouring at the depot the puddles all gather all around "hey mister bus driver come on let's go I wanna bid goodbye to this lonesome town" Well the mill towns and the cities drift behind me As down the highway I do roll I'm floating along like a fish in the sea can't wait to get back home

I Want To Go 02:12
I want to go, I want to get out of here, I want to go, and hit the road. What I need is a change of scene go some place I've never been don't need to be all that far away just something I don't get every day when I left work was in the middle of the night you were waiting with a plan that seemed right drive to the coast we're going to watch the sun rise daylight come there ain't no sleeping in these eyes

I reek like booze, and I'm bound to bound to lose all that whiskey courses through my veins, Like a still I smell, and I'm bound for Hell. You know this time I think I'm going to lose my brain well my lucks been bad and this bottles all I've had well that good rye whiskey it's so sweet and smooth ain't no friend by my side no place I can go and hide for this rough soul I'm just trying to soothe my legs are weak and I can barely speak that room is spinning right in front of my eyes those street lights shine and I'm out of time like to get home before that lights up in the sky By the end of the night I must get right I'm walking home when I'm leaving here All my whiskeys gone and I've sang all my songs What's happening ain't always so clear

I'm down by that railroad bridge got that sun a sinking low I stand by the river and watch it flow by I've got not place to go I've got not place to go, I've got not place to go, Stand by that river and watch it roll by, I've got no place to go I'm down by the bus depot, with a suitcase in my hand and a twenty dollar bill in my pocket I'll go where ever I can I'll go where ever I can, I'll go where ever I can, twenty dollar bill in my pocket and I'll go where ever I can Nightfall on the city I'm on my old red bike I can ride all night long, And go where I like I'll go where I like, I'll go anywhere I like, I can ride all night long, gonna go where ever I like

Bottle 02:49
The apartment was silent and empty, everyone gone on their separate way. Alone I stand in the kitchen trying to forget about my day Here's another bottle of whiskey, Here's another night gone wrong Here's another bottle whiskey And I wonder where everyone has gone Now I stand in that doorway Smoke my last rolled cigarette, all alone in that apartment just filled with sadness and regret. Here's to the ones that will see me when the daylight sun shines bright here's hoping that the devil don't come knocking and I'm going to make it through another night All around it's so damn silent windows are inky black every time I look out at them All I see if my own face staring back here's another bottle of whiskey here's another night gone wrong Here's another bottle of whiskey and I wonder where everyone has gone and I wonder where everything has gone and I wonder where all my friends have gone
8.
It's late at night my darling, it's late at night my dear, it's late at night my darling I wish that you were here The moon is caught high in the branches someone must set it free it's casts a pale a hollow glow through the window down on my It's late at night my darling it's late at night my dear it's late at night my darling I wish that you were near
