I’ve lived in the lonely city
I crawled out from the lonely city, singin’...


Now I’m back in my hometown county
Doin’ jack in my hometown county, singin’...


I can’t make no God damn money
I just can’t make no money, singin’...


I travel to the busy city,
I crawl out to the busy city, singin’...


There I’m gonna make me some money,
People there gonna give me some money, while they’re singin’...


Got a song for the busy city,
I wrote a song for the busy city,
But will they ever stop and listen...? Please stop and listen...

I haven’t slept for days,
I got you on my mind,
Block the sun with these shades,
That I hide behind,
Yeah, I’m on the right path,
But you’re leading me astray,
Sure, I try to hide it,
But you’re too good at bringing out the bad in me.

Bringing out the bad in me,
Bringing out the bad in me,
Bringing out the bad in me,
Yeah, you’re too good at bringing out the bad in me.

Thought I was free from these chains,
But I’m back to old ways,
It runs deep in my veins,
And leaves a bitter taste,
Yeah, I’m the boss man,
But who’s the boss of me?
I used to call the shots,
But you’re too good at bringing out the bad in me.

Bringing out the bad in me,
Bringing out the bad in me,
Bringing out the bad in me,

Yeah you’re too good at bringing out the bad in me

I'm going back home this time,
Way back to where I belong,
I left a long time ago,
Don't recognise it no more,

Woah Yeah Yeah

She left me nothing to keep, Yeah,
Shot like a dog in the street,
But I trust her every time,
Can't get the girl off my mind,

Woah Yeah Yeah

So much for a happy end,
Took right off with my best friend,
Now I'm going home again,
For the first time in a while,

I'm going back home this time,
Way back to where I belong,
I left a long time ago,
Don't recognize it no more
