At closing time I step down off the mountain.
I’m strong enough to make it without you.
I know that I’ll be right back here tomorrow.
Too weak to sober up and face the truth
and…
Nobody robbed a liquor store on the lower part of town
Nobody od’ed nobody burned a single building down
Nobody fired a shot in anger, nobody had to die in vain…
…There’s this cute little girlie, she’s a’workin’ there
A black leotard and her feet are bare
I’m gonna drink a lotta coffee, spend a little cash
Make that girl love me when I put on some trash
You can understand why I’ve got to get back
