Well the bricks are piled on main street And the sun is turning brown Anybody with any sense Has already left town The beast is hollering lonesome And the ghost of rimbaud rides I've got a drunken head full of reasons why I've got a broken heart inside I can hear a dog someplace barking I hear the wind begin to moan At night i walk these rain splattered streets Dead on my feet and all alone My dreams begin to crumble I can feel the downward slide I've got a drunken head full of reasons why I've got a broken heart inside I have seen all of my dreams Slipping away like sand Love has grown wings and left me Flown right out of my hand Now i'm weary and bruised from singing the blues And my fortunes are down My face and my walk are known In every bar and dive in town You can ask me where am i going But i'll let your question ride I've got a drunken head full of reasons why
I've got a broken heart inside I've got a handful of mist I've got a barrel of it What do i do with it Now i've got no place to run And i've got no place to hide All my trials, all my cares All my worries, all my pride All my sins, all my troubles They're being washed in by the tide And i wish, how i wish That i could get on that horse And ride and ride, ride and ride, ride and ride Onto the other side Ride on to the other side Ride on to the other side Ride on to the other side Ride on to the other side, the other side, the other side... Now i've got a pain in my soul And it's fifteen miles wide Now i've got a pain in my soul And it's fifteen miles wide Now i've got a pain in my soul And it's fifteen miles wide I've got a drunken head full of reasons why I've got a broken heart inside
