[00:19.69] Living free is gaining on me
[00:26.50] Can't keep ahead of my dreams
[00:33.71] My relief turned out a thief
[00:40.69] Smooth as rocks in the stream
[00:47.09] This old town is a sad affair
[00:50.37] You be glad you're not there
[00:53.65] It ties your hands
[00:55.42] It spikes your drink
[00:57.31] I'd say more
[01:00.90] But I can't think
[01:07.01] Lazy Jim took a bottle with him
[01:14.00] Tried to flag down a train
[01:20.96] Left a note
[01:23.32] Couldn't read what he wrote
[01:28.07] A light came on in my brain
[01:34.44] This old town is a sad affair
[01:37.74] You be glad you're not there
[01:41.20] It ties your hands
[01:42.96] It spikes your drink
[01:44.72] I'd say more
[01:48.37] But I can't think
[01:54.52] The hills are gold
[01:57.75] Mornings are cold
[02:01.05] Don't know a soul on the street
[02:08.17] I keep to myself like everyone else
[02:15.30] Nobody says much to me
[02:43.10] Go to bed
[02:45.12] Fight thoughts in my head
[02:49.47] In the two in between wake and sleep
[02:56.77] Rats to kill
[02:59.39] Contracts to fill
[03:03.78] It's on ice
[03:05.55] But it won't keep
[03:09.71] This old town is a sad affair
[03:13.10] You be glad you're not there
[03:16.63] It ties your hands
[03:18.27] It spikes your drink
[03:20.11] I'd say more
[03:23.67] But I can't think
[03:29.22] This old town is a sad affair
[03:32.34] You be glad you're not there
[03:35.81] It ties your hands
[03:37.52] It spikes your drink
[03:39.42] I'd say more
[03:43.00] But I can't think
