I'm standing by the highway Suitcase in my hand My pocket full of memories My dreams lie broken in the sand I know my luck has run out And all but done me in I ain't got nothing left But the air I'm breathing in
I've been through hell and back And I had my share of pain I thought I'd never make it out alive
I'm battered and I'm beaten I'm out here all alone I miss my woman and my little boy How I wish that I was home I've run from law and order But there was nothing gained Now only time will tell me If I can make it home again
I'm falling down in lonely town My life's in ruins my name a joke I'm falling down can't stand up anymore I'm running out I cannot shout No one can hear no one can help I'm running out of everything I was
I'm sitting at the station Waiting for the train To take me somewhere further Away from all the pain A little boy came asking Mister what is wrong But I could not tell him What is wrong
