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
