lyrics

When you need work in the city
You walk a lonesome road
Knocking on the door but nobody's home
It's like hope or a rope 'round your throat
But you never know
The life you save may be your own

As the days keep ticking away
Said it's hard to pull my soul out of the grave
The whole city is drowning around me
But I ain't trying to be saved
Because I know the only way home is keep begging for change

No matter what I do I'm always hangin' on
Hangin' on next to you
Try to get ahead but instead I'm left hangin' on
Hangin' on
What do I do

Got an interview at 5 o'clock, yeah
Like the phone gonna ring
Nobody trying to give a man anything
Got need to sow my seed
But what am I gonna say
I can barely feed myself anyway

I got nothing I can offer you
Except a broken heart inside a man past his use
But if you can hide your eyes
And give me half a chance
I will find a spot on the sidewalk where we can dance

No matter what I do I'm always hangin' on
Hangin' on next to you
Try to get ahead but instead I'm left hangin' on
Hangin' on
What do I do

Guess I'll keep trying to get my peace of mind
But god only knows if that comes through
I'm out here dying to buy a little precious time
So I can spend another night with you
