Miles of Bones - Out of Rope lyrics

[Verse 1] T's that time where I find I have run out of rope, I drank all my money away I lost my fair lady and I've given up all hope, she'll no more be looking my way So call me the west end of an east-facing mule, call me my father's disgrace For I know I'm a sinner and I know I'm a fool for the lies that I tell and the songs that I play [Chorus 1] I smoked my last cigarette down by the tracks where everyone leaves here for good They get on the train and they never come back, and I'd leave here too if I could [Verse 2] So I sat at the station the rest of the day watching the faces go by There was no sign of mercy, regret, or dismay, there was nary a tear in their eye So when I die lay me down near old Gerry and Tom in a box of fine-finished white pine And carve upon my headstone "we know where he was from, but what the hell he was doing is your guess or mine" [Chorus 2] I smoked my last cigarette down by the tracks where everyone leaves here for good They get on the train and they never come back, and I'd leave here too if I could I'd leave here too if I could
