I don't want you to worry, I'm okay Just didn't want you seeing me this way We tried to talk about it but we didn't understand We never really talked much anyway I finally found a place to call my own A place where all good sinners can get stoned I'll keep my holy vision, you keep your stupid pride You said I couldn't make it on my own But I'm not dead, I'm in Pittsburgh And now I can't get out of town I'm not dead, I'm in Pittsburgh They've got me all strung, come cut me down Like the weeds in all the cracks
All my memories come back Like some Allegheny smack in the face It's all just one big monkey house to me Just living ain't the same as being free Don't stop and think about it, it'll only make you sad Come put me out of my misery 'Cause I'm not dead, I'm in Pittsburgh Where a man can lose his mind I'm not dead, I'm in Pittsburgh They've got me suited up for crazy time I'm not dead, I'm in Pittsburgh And now I can't get out of town Hey, I'm not dead, I'm in Pittsburgh
