lyrics

I'd rather, come down in a million pieces
Than land, in Hell gracefully
When the sky starts falling and the world comes to and end
It won't have a thing to do with me
It won't have a thing to do with me

So show me to the place, we send of the wind
Let it blow me into any old town
'Cause I can work for nothing just about anywhere
Find a gang of tired friends to keep around
Find a gang of tired friends to keep around

I promise I won't ask for anything else
Well honey I'm afraid to carry more
Been looking for a place to free up my hands
Hold nothing, but the key to every door
Hold nothing, but the key to every door

So I flew on out to the big city
With nothing to which that I was bound
But honey I can hardly share a room with my self
and I'm wishing that I had you around
I'm wishing that I had you around

To find me here so far from home
To find just what I can't afford to lose
All that I've got without you here
Is these, these old familiar blues
I brought along these old familiar blues
