Nothing ever happens on this side of town
Bourbonette and bulleit I was hangin around
And you were lookin for love tryin to burn the whole place down
Oh black hole in the ground
Right you get to digging into others affairs
Takin on bets, double dog darin
You was a lonesome device, lookin for a quick repair
Oh, there darling there
And she goes, "all my life, all my life, I been a fool
I seen days where the sun don't shine
Ain't got nothing really left to lose,
Flyin down a road, tearin through the night, fallin outta love,
Runnin outta time. Sweet sweet time!"
But its alright, its ok!
Certain troubles abide, in the light of the day
Don't get to losin your mind, or get to frettin away
It only hurts for awhile, it washes out in the rain
Remind me of a movie all the stories she told,
Hills of Carolina to the city of gold you were right on the money,
First class, best in show.
But now you can't get to sleep, you're stuck at the bar
Killin the pain, breakin guitars,
Singin ol tattered love songs in the dark
Oh just fallin apart
And she goes, "all my life, all my life, I've had a dream
If I wasn't such a goddamn mess, if you woulda never given up on me!
Flyin down a road, tearin through the night, fallin outta love
Runnin outta time. Sweet sweet time.
But its alright, its ok!
Certain troubles abide, in the light of the day
Don't get to losin your mind, or get to frettin away
It only hurts for awhile, it washes out in the rain
