Well I�ve been walkin
Down a one way dirty street
Tryin to find the answers
And I�ve been hopin
For a chance to meet
The rat that spread the cancer

And the lies they�ve been spinnin
And the smiles they�ve been grinnin
There has sure been some sinnin
But nobody�s winnin
When the walls start to crumblin
You feel like you�re stumblin
And nobody wants you when you�re down

They took the boy from the city
But they can�t take the city from
the boys lookin� pretty
Now he�s lookin like a pity
Cut the flesh down to the bone
But you can�t get
You can�t get blood from a stone
You can�t get blood from a stone

Well I�m a rollin
But my train�s gone off the tracks
and my wheels are spinnin
And I�m a walkin
Down a one way dirty street
But my heart�s not sinkin

From the love they�ve been buyin
And the blues they�ve been cryin
Now the time keeps a flyin
But nobody�s tryin
Cause the love of the money
Didn�t turn out so sunny
When the well�s dry
No one comes around

They took the boy from the city
But they can�t take the city from the
Boys lookin pretty
Now he�s lookin like a pity
Cut the flesh down to the bone
But you can�t get
You can�t get from a stone

You can try
But I still got the fight in my eyes
Suck it dry
Cause I�ve had about enough of your lies

They took the boy from the city
But they can�t take the city form the
Boys lookin pretty
Now he�s lookin like a pity
Cut the flesh down to the bone
But you can�t get blood from a stone

They took the boy form the city
But they can�t take the city from the
Boys lookin pretty
Now he�s looking like a pity
Cut the flesh down to the bone
But you can�t get
You can�t get blood from a stone
