carrie nation & the speakeasy - obis lyrics

[verse 1]
well, his blistered feet, they drag the ground as he walks down hopeless lane
his mind is bent, his soul is gone, he don’t care about the rain
his clothes are torn and tattered now, and he don’t realize
the wind sweeps up the alley and tears up his cold gray eyes

[verse 2]
he’s walkin’ down the same road as he walked a day ago
he’ll wake up on a stoop somewhere to curse that awful road
there was a time in another lifе when he had the sеnse to try
but he sold his soul so long ago, he don’t see the reason why

[chorus]
’cause it was over (it was over!)
before it started (‘fore it started!)
with his back (with his back!)
against the wall
my dearly departed
your number has been called

[verse 3]
well, everyone’s the bad guy, and everyone’s to blame
nothin’ happens easily ’cause everything’s a game
we’ve been makin’ deals with the other side of h+ll
you reap just what you sow, and then you stand all by yourself
[chorus]
’cause it was over (it was over!)
before it started (‘fore it started!)
with his back (with his back!)
against the wall
my dearly departed
your number has been called

[banjo solo]

[chorus]
’cause it was over (it was over!)
before it started (‘fore it started!)
with his back (with his back!)
against the wall
my dearly departed
your number has been called

[outro]
it was over (it was over!)
‘fore it started (‘fore it started!)
with his back (with his back!)
against the wall
my dearly departed
your number has been called
