Well all this smoke chokes me
But it's where I find release
I've been in and out of hard times so long it's killing me
I guess I could give up drinking but then what would I do
A new vice would surely find me beaten down and blue
With all this time on my hands
I could build a bridge to take me back
To a time when things were simple and I was free
But the clock don't work when it's rolling back
And a train can't roll when it's off the track
Hell I must be dreaming
It's hard to understand
If you weren't dealt my hand
I'm far from the keeper of the cards
Ain't no ace up my sleeve
I don't mean to talk about misery
But the only way to sing the blues is to live'm and man I live'm
With all this time on my hands
I could build a bridge to take me back
To a time when things were simple and I was free
But the clock don't work when it's rolling back
And a train can't roll when it's off the track
Hell I must be dreaming
With all this time on my hands
I could build a bridge to take me back
To a time when things were simple and I was free
But the clock don't work when it's rolling back
And a train can't roll when it's off the track
Hell I must be dreaming
