Well. there's buildings in this here town
that rise above the tallest mountains
Yer the sky up there'll watch you
with an unforgiving eye
And there are bridges in this here town
Statuetts and little fountains
There ain't nothing like a mountain
If you're looking to get high
And this old place
it really dont become me
There ain't no way
to explain why
There are drugs
and there are lovers
but my friend,
there ain't no other
There ain't nothing like a mountain
if you're looking to get high
Well there is sadness in a womans eyes
Salty as a shallow ocean
she'll stare at you for ages
'til your throat is all hot and dry
There movement knows no boundry
ain't no comfort in her motion
there ain't nothing like a woman
to learn you how to cry
And this old place
it really dont become me
there ain't no way
to explain why
There are friend and there are lovers
we must choose one or the other
There aint nothing like a woman
for to learn you how to cry
well there's money in this here town
stained with guilt of those who made it
Sharp regrets the ones who lost it
or the ones who its lead astray
Well the money in this here town
stacks up taller the buildings
in pursuit of all that money
we might piss our lives away
This old place
it really dont become me
there ain't no way
to explain why
There are men and there are daughters
Those that leave and those that follow
there aint nothing like and air-plane
to let them know you mean goodbye
There ain't nothing like and air-plane
to let them know you mean goodbye
