walk downtown in my broke down shoes
to the side street pub with the bar band blues
take a back seat at the front door table
order me a bud and a shot of black label
close this place down once again sittin' here
wishin' you to walk right in down my shot shoot my beer
i ain't gotta go home but i can't stay here
it's short short walk down to my second home
but that boulevard gets longer
when you're walking back alone
and i don't know where you might be
wherever it is it'll be without me
i keep thinking i'll come home one day and find you
long as i got that neon light
shining like a beacon in the night
i know i can make it downtown by myself
if you don't know where you're going
you might end up somewhere else
kickin off my shoes stumblin through the front door
knowin too well the kind of night i'm in for
cubs got beat again on sports center
my bedroom's cold as my tv dinner
one more cigarette and i'll kill the light
and i lay there wishin' you were sleepin' by my side
i don't know where you might be
wherever it is it'll be without me
i keep thinkin' i'll come home one day and find you
long as i got that front porch light
shinin' like a beacon in the night
i know i can make it home all by myself cause
if you don't know where you're going
you might end up somewhere else
girl i don't know where you might be
wherever it is it'll be without me
i keep thinking i'll come home one day and find you
long as i got that front porch light
shining like a beacon in the night
i know i can make it home all by myself
if you don't know where you're going
you might end up somewhere else
are somewhere else
you might end up somewhere else
somewhere else
