lyrics

Sitting at Home, all alone, (I’m) all dressed up, with nowhere to go
Watching the clock, ticking on by….
I’m sick of this place, just wasting my time
Losing my mind, Selling my soul, I can’t shake this feelin’ no more
Nobody knows just how I feel, I waiting for… something to change
I’m watching the time go by in Watch City, hellhounds on my trail
(and they’re barking louder) They’re chasin' me down, shakin' me down, breakin' me down, takin' me down… them Watch City Blues

The sun goes down, another day gone,
another dollar short, with nuthin' to show
wondering where the Hell I’m going…
I can’t seem to find my way
My eyes going blind, My hearts turning cold,
I can’t take this place no’ more
I gotta get out, before its too late, I gotta break free, and make a change
I’m watching the time go by in Watch City, Hellhounds on my trail…..
They’re Kickin' me down, bringin' me down, cuttin' me down, crushin' me down… them Watch City Blues

GTR SOLO:
(No Love, No $$$, No Friends, No Family, No respect, No Future….)

I ain’t living my life here, I ain’t livin alone
I’m packing my bags, and I'm moving out, and I ain’t ever coming home
I’m gonna LIVE FREE OR DIE (trying)
Searching to find some peace of mind, a new place where I belong
Southbound, Westbound, Northbound, Eastbound,
ANYWHERE BUT WALTHAM
They won’t be holdin' me down, draggin' me down, pushin' me down, pullin' me down…. ANYMORE.
I’m closing the door on these Watch City Blues,
ya’s done me wrong for the last time.

NO TURNING BACK.
