Robbie Robertson - He Don't Live Here No More lyrics

Got a ticket on the mainline I was stranded on the fault line I got wasted on the moonshine Too far gone I was walking in the sundown I was heading for the breakdown When you're sleeping on the cold ground Too far gone There was a cloud hanging over me Something just reached out and grabbed a hold of me Inside of the belly of the whale Outside they was beatin' on a door Somebody goin' down tonight I said boys he don't live here no more He don't live here no more I was riding on the night train I was moving in the fast lane I was only trying to k** the pain Too far gone I was running on a red light Always looking for a street fight I was higher than a lost kite Too far gone When you're waiting for the axe to drop When you're hooked so bad you could not stop Inside of the belly of the whale Outside they was beatin' on a door Somebody goin' down tonight I said boys he don't live here no more He don't live here no more Got no one to blame but myself They couldn't hear my distant cry for help Inside of the belly of the whale Outside they was beatin' on the door Somebody's goin' down tonight I said boys he don't live here no more He don't live here no more He don't live here no more He don't live here no more
