Lyrics
0:12I walked in here off the dirty mile
0:17Swaggered in with a prison style
0:22Aching bones and dirty feet
0:27Needing a bed and something to eat
0:32I played for you and I played it right
0:38I sang in tune and I danced all night
0:43I cooked at you as the only one
0:48I diddn't know it could come undone
1:06I hit the road when I was fifteen
1:11When my mother died and my dad got mean
1:16I've been locked up since twenty one
1:21I was my mother's only son
1:26Forgotten most from early days
1:31But I remember what she used to say
1:36Little boy you're my pride and joy
1:41The only good thing about old fitzroy
2:13I feel the walls are falling down around
2:17It makes me loathe that town somehow
2:24I've been drinking all the wrong
2:26Things all night
2:29I've been thinking about what
2:30I've got to do to survive this life this life
3:04I feel the walls are falling down around
3:08It makes me loathe that town somehow
3:15I've been drinking all the wrong
3:18Things all night
3:20I've been thinking about what
3:22I've got to do to survive this life this life
I walked in here off the dirty mile Swaggered in with a prison style Aching bones and dirty feet Needing a bed and something to eat I played for you and I played it right I sang in tune and I danced all night I cooked at you as the only one I diddn't know it could come undone I hit the road when I was fifteen When my mother died and my dad got mean I've been locked up since twenty one I was my mother's only son Forgotten most from early days But I remember what she used to say Little boy you're my pride and joy The only good thing about old fitzroy I feel the walls are falling down around It makes me loathe that town somehow I've been drinking all the wrong Things all night I've been thinking about what I've got to do to survive this life this life I feel the walls are falling down around It makes me loathe that town somehow I've been drinking all the wrong Things all night I've been thinking about what I've got to do to survive this life this life
