Last 20 Years

Well, the last 20 years I was digging a hole

With rocks, rafts and rivers, never setting a goal

Late nights at the bars, women and work

40 hours a week and I go sleep in the dirt

Vacuum sales, hammer swinging to sewing machines

Reading classifieds ads and surfing magazines

I never thought for once I'd be settling down, like all of my friends

Now I'm leaving this town

I guess I need to be leaving this town

So long I saw it coming

I'm gone but I ain't running

So long I saw it coming

I'm gone but I ain't running

Coast to coast with the one I trusted the most

I lost hope with every mile post

Headed to the desert and the setting sun

When we got out west

She was already done

For the last 20 years I've been slaving away

I'm all outta cash and this debt to pay

There's not a lot work here to find around

It all points now to me leaving this town

I guess I need to be leaving this town

So long I saw it coming

I'm gone but I ain't running

So long I saw it coming

I'm gone but I ain't running

But I don't mind

That's how the story goes

And I don't mind

That's how the story goes

But I don't mind

That's how the story goes

And I don't mind

That's how the story goes

So long I saw it coming

I'm gone but I ain't running

So long I saw it coming

I'm gone but I ain't running
