[ Featuring Pete ]
Well, I woke up in a rush today, forgot to comb my hair
It don't matter, I ain't going anywhere, so I light a cigarette and I walk out that door
Well, the birds are chirping, but there's darkness in this town
The last man, he's been known to stick around
I try, I try, Lord, I try, I will carry on
Well, it seems to be that every part of me is broken down
Well, I try, I try, Lord, I try, I will carry on
Havin, Booze for breakfast at the local dinery, well, I talk sweet with a waitress that I
Know's been eyeing me, but she turned me down when I asked her out on a date
In the afternoon, I'll smoke away the afternoon, I ain't got no appetite, just some Playfares
And a spoon
Well, I'm hoping this will take me home
Well, it seems to be that every part of me is broken down
Well, I try, I try, Lord, I try, I will carry on
Well, my nose is running as I'm shaking off the cold
This stuff will kill you, or at least that's what I'm told
And as the sun goes down, I think of her back home
So it's told by every soul, the time will slip away
It's just the pain of that stained glass that's broken yesterday
There's a cemetery down the road, please don't go
Well, it seems to be that every part of me is broken down
Well, I try, I try, Lord, I try, I will carry on
Well, I woke up in a rush today, forgot to comb my hair
It don't matter, I ain't going anywhere
So I light a cigarette and then I walk out that door
