Eamon Mcgrath - Desperation, Alberta lyrics

In my home town Bodies float down the river now And all my friends have drinking problems now It's like they've lived in bars And all our lives are in gray skys now No time to spend our lives No time to save the light We're always pulling somewhere the road never gets to and your ghost is tempting visit through the year There are times when our lives would disappear I was born in a small town People always putting their roots down But I've got my self a drinking problem now It's like we lived in bars And the girls just stay pretty as they used to be The gra** just ain't as green Everybody is trying to deceive Well, I've got myself a drinking problem now. Yeah, I've got myself a drinking problem now. But I blame it on the town I blame it on the town And there's people sleeping in boxes Nobody is willing to whistle down the wind People never grow up They just pin down in my hometown
