A Long Way Off

A man on the street

Asked me where I'm goin'

I looked at him and said

"Man, I wish that I was knowin'

It seems I'm always sailin'

Against the wind that blowin'

And I'm a long way off"

Yeah, a long way off

Maybe a coffin's

The best cure for my cough

But it's a long way off"

I wagered all my winnings

On a table full of tears

She looked at me and said

"We don't play those games here

It's only Russian Roulette

With a pistol to your ear

'Cause you're a long way off

Yeah, a long way off”

She said, "Why you always rushin'?"

For whenever I'm up

You bring me down
