Originally recorded by Us and the Brotherhood *sigh
Lyrics loosely based on Jack Kerouac's On The Road
lyrics
I was living in an old concrete home
The offending car backed up in the downpour
Took the chance by the bloodline on the road
I was living in an old concrete home
Took it back but I lost it all
Can't buy back what I sold
Can't buy my soul, can't buy my soul
I know how the city was living
It's been wrong from the start
How are these people still breathing?
A country home, some mountains to hide us
The animals outside with the flowers
It makes sense, it's easy living
Can I go home?
