The Long Ryders - Lights of Downtown

Pack my bags packed it in
Never coming back here again
Paid my dues and stayed in line
16 years I served my time

Now what I did I do regret
And all the days that I had wept
Up all night and you can bet
I've got to live with that

See the lights of downtown
That's where I shot that old man down
Now the heat's calling me
Caused my insanity

Now when I walked and people say#
How could he just walk away
Had a gun no daughter no son
One life is gone and one begun

Now what I did I do regret
And all the days that I had wept
Up all night and you can bet
I've got to live with that

See the lights of downtown
That's where I shot that old man down
Now the heat's calling me
Caused my insanity

I can't run away
I can't hide
It's a slow death
For me inside

See the lights of downtown
That's where I shot that old man down
Now the heat's calling me
Caused my insanity
