sad old town - johnny 99 lyrics

[verse 1]
i’m tired of bummin’ around in this old town, just need a place to lay my head tonight
watch the shadows swallow the world, let my sorrows drift out of sight
but i think i’ll find an old barroom, see how long i can ride the pine
saddle up with a drunk and see how much it takes to ease my mind

[verse 2]
i’m tired of spinning my wheels in this crooked deal, i’m tired of losin’ all the time
just when i finally found the words, now i’m runnin’ out of lines
and if i moved down to nashville, you know, i wonder what i’d really find?
you think i’d finally be whole, or would i be having too good of a time?

[chorus]
well, i gotta get out of this sad old town and quit mourning
i swear, i can’t spend another night on that dirty old floor
but it’s 3 am, looks like i did it again
i just came here hoping that i might find a friend
and ask ’em if by chance they’ve seen my mind
[bridge]
and when i look back now, it’s kind of funny how i think i knew it along, but i’m not sure
and when the lights come on, they’re finally playin’ our song, i’m still wonderin’ how the h*ll did it ever go so wrong
and maybe i’ll be wonderin’ for all time
