Well I've been walkin'
Down a one way dirty street
Tryin' to find the answers
And I've been hopin'
For a chance to meet
The rat that spread the cancer
And the lies they've been spinnin'
And the smiles they've been grinnin'
There has sure been some sinnin'
But nobody's winnin'
When the walls start to crumblin'
You feel like you're stumblin'
And nobody wants you when you're down
They took the boy from the city
But they can't take the city from
the boys lookin' pretty
Now he's lookin' like a pity
Cut the flesh down to the bone
But you can't get
You can't get blood from a stone
You can't get blood from a stone
Well I'm a rollin'
But my train's gone off the tracks
and my wheels are spinnin'
And I'm a walkin'
Down a one way dirty street
But my heart's not sinkin'
From the love they've been buyin'
And the blues they've been cryin'
Now the time keeps a flyin'
But nobody's tryin'
Cause the love of the money
Didn't turn out so sunny
When the well's dry
No one comes around
They took the boy from the city
But they can't take the city from the
Boys lookin' pretty
Now he's lookin' like a pity
Cut the flesh down to the bone
But you can't get
You can't get from a stone
You can try
But I still got the fight in my eyes
Suck it dry
Cause I've had about enough of your lies
They took the boy from the city
But they can't take the city form the
Boys lookin' pretty
Now he's lookin' like a pity
Cut the flesh down to the bone
But you can't get blood from a stone
They took the boy form the city
But they can't take the city from the
Boys lookin' pretty
Now he's looking like a pity
Cut the flesh down to the bone
But you can't get
You can't get blood from a stone
