An empty cup of coffee no cigarettes to smoke
And a dirty two room walking flat's a long way to my home
This life in New York City
Just ain't what I thought it'd be
Loneliness and desperation are closing in on me
Loneliness and desperation are closing in on me
How lately get to thinking
Bout the things I left back home
That healing country sunshine and a woman singing song
Then I turned back to the bottle I turned back to the pain
And every night I'll kneel and pray I'll see her face again
Every night I'll kneel and pray I'll see her face again
The sign on the highway says it's30 miles to go
Just as well 10,000 in this freezing rain and snow
But that's not gonna stop me
I know just where I'm bound
And if you ever look for me you'll know where I'll be found
If you ever look for me you'll know where I'll be found
And a dirty two room walking flat's a long way to my home
This life in New York City
Just ain't what I thought it'd be
Loneliness and desperation are closing in on me
Loneliness and desperation are closing in on me
How lately get to thinking
Bout the things I left back home
That healing country sunshine and a woman singing song
Then I turned back to the bottle I turned back to the pain
And every night I'll kneel and pray I'll see her face again
Every night I'll kneel and pray I'll see her face again
The sign on the highway says it's30 miles to go
Just as well 10,000 in this freezing rain and snow
But that's not gonna stop me
I know just where I'm bound
And if you ever look for me you'll know where I'll be found
If you ever look for me you'll know where I'll be found
