Josie works the counter at the downtown five and dime |
| [00:23.58] |
Anything at all to help her pass the time |
| [00:28.70] |
Her mama keeps the baby and grandpa rambles on |
| [00:32.75] |
About the good times playing in his mind |
| [00:37.64] |
It's a hard life livin' when you're lonely |
| [00:42.39] |
It's a long night sleepin' alone |
| [00:46.98] |
It's a hard time waitin' for tomorrow |
| [00:51.65] |
It's a long, long way home |
| [01:04.03] |
Josie spends the evening with the people "on" the pages |
| [01:08.09] |
Of the paperback she picked up "at" the store |
| [01:13.37] |
Or sometimes it's the TV or she'll try to write a letter |
| [01:17.39] |
But they don't come too often anymore |
| [01:22.12] |
It's a hard life livin' when you're lonely |
| [01:26.78] |
It's a long night sleepin' alone |
| [01:31.34] |
It's a hard time waitin' for tomorrow |
| [01:35.99] |
It's a long, long way home |
| [01:48.09] |
I stare at the gray walls before me |
| [01:53.04] |
And I see her face in the stone |
| [01:57.49] |
I try to imagine our baby |
| [02:02.08] |
I wish they would let me go home |
| [02:06.71] |
I wish they would let me go home |
| [02:13.85] |
It's a hard life livin' when you're lonely |
| [02:18.50] |
It's a long night sleepin' alone |
| [02:22.93] |
It's a hard time waitin' for tomorrow |
| [02:27.52] |
It's a long, long way home |
| [02:32.12] |
It's a long, long way home |
| [02:36.82] |
Bring me and the other boys home |
| [02:41.21] |
Bring me and the other boys home |
