I got one thing on my mind, I just can't shake it
You've got your reasons, I've got mine
And when the dam bursts, I can't take it
We'll drown our sorrows, here it comes

Look here it comes
With my head hangin' high and my hands are tied
On the horizon there's a little piece of land I spy
Can we go someplace, where they know my face?
Gather round now, bear witness to my fall from grace

And if I had to tell the truth, I would be lying
If I said that I was wrong
To be the right man in the wrong place
On the right side of the road

Here it comes
While my head hangs high and my hands are tied
On the horizon there's a little piece of land I spy
Can we go someplace where they don't know my face?
Gather round, bear witness to my fall from grace

Darling, you don't need to go
Into what you think you know
If only you'd had a chance to grow
Into what you know

So take it from the man who surfed the sorrow
Who spilt the salt into the sea
Who stole the whiskey from the bottle
Who sold his soul to destiny

Look here it comes
While my head hangin' high and my hands are tied
On the horizon there's a little piece of land I spy
Can we go someplace where they know my face?
Gather round, bear witness to my fall from grace
With my head hangin' high and my hands are tied
Let's see a little piece of land I spy
Can we go someplace where they know my face?
Gather round, bear witness to my fall from grace

I'm here to let you know
