  • Another morning in the evening
    Times still on the floor
    And I don’t even know her name
    Or if she lives here
    Had enough but I want more
    I don’t remember how I got here
    And how long it’s been now
    A day or two, maybe more

    On the whole must remains
    Never wanted anyway
    I always bit the hand that beat me
    And they rode me off
    It’s easy not to care

    Never trusted anyone
    Don’t see why I should now
    Fade some blinking never fair

    You’re all gonna be sorry when I’ll leave town
    And get it together, for the turnaround

    6 bucks in my pocket and these shoes on my feet
    The first step is out the door and onto the street
    6 bucks in my pocket and these shoes on my feet
    The first step is out the door and onto the street
    6 bucks in my pocket and these shoes on my feet
    The first step is out the door and onto the street
    6 bucks in my pocket and these shoes on my feet
    The first step is out the door and onto the street
    6 bucks in my pocket and these shoes on my feet
    The first step is out the door and onto the street
    6 bucks in my pocket and these shoes on my feet
    The first step is out the door and onto the street Writer/s: JEFFREY SCOTT LYSTER, KELLEY LOGSDON, MARK O. EVERETT
