Farther Down

Farther Down

1st verse
There's trouble ahead
I've got a worried mind
On a dangerous road
Driving blind
With one light out
trying to find my way
Back to better times
and brighter days
CHORUS
Farther down
from where you left me
I knew it wouldn't take long
now I see
You've got a new man
there by your side
I got a bottle
and plans for suicide
2nd verse
I love the dreamin'
it's the wakin' I can't stand
'Cause I know you're in the arms
of another man
He's gettin' all that love
you once gave to me
We can never go back
to the way we used to be
CHORUS
Farther down
from where you left me
I knew it wouldn't take long
now I see
You've got a new man
there by your side
I got a bottle
and plans for suicide
Bridge
Many sleepless nights
have been spent in vain
trying to drown the sorrow
and the pain
3rd verse
Through a grimy window
curtain full of holes
I see the truckers pulling out
I watch the trains
come and go
bought myself a '40'
'cause I can't afford a gun
just one bullet
the pain would all be gone
CHORUS
Farther down
from where you left me
I knew it wouldn't take long
now I see
You've got a new man
there by your side
I got a bottle
and a plan for suicide
