lyrics

Packed my bags, packed it in
Never coming back her again
Paid my dues and stayed in line
16 years of serving my time
Now what I did I do regret
All the days that I had wept
Up all night and you can bet
I've got a live with that

See the lights of downtown
It's where I shot that ol' man down
Now he's calling me
Calls my insanity

Now when I walk and people say
How can he just away
Had a gun, no daughter, no son
One life is gone and one begun
Now what I did I do regret
All the days that I had wept
Up all night and you can bet
I've got a live with that

See the lights of downtown
It's where I shot that ol' man down
Now he's calling me
Calls my insanity

I can't run away, I can't hide
Its a slow death, for me inside

See the lights of downtown
It's where I shot that ol' man down
Now he's calling me
Calls my insanity
See the lights of downtown
It's where I shot that ol' man down
Now he's calling me
Calls my insanity
See the lights of downtown
It's where I shot that ol' man down
Now he's calling me
Calls my insanity
See the lights of downtown
It's where I shot that ol' man down
Now he's calling me
Calls my insanity
