cross canadian ragweed - the years lyrics
my mother had a mexican boyfriend
he stole a car once or twice before,
he got busted at the best budget inn
i found my way to the door,
i couldn’t take anymore
lived with my sister and her second husband
south of the river,
and all regret
i went to work with my cousin
just like the rest of us kids
i tried to keep it all hid
[chorus]
it seems so long ago
i swore i’d never let it show
but i kinda did
the years can slip away
when your tryin’ to get away
and i never did.
i got tired of country livin’
and tryin’ to make a new batch of friends
its hard to give,
when theres no givin’
i stuck my thumb in the wind,
nothing against my kin.
i headed back to where i started
p-wned everything that i could p-wn
i guess i thought they’d be open-hearted
they never knew i was gone
i just kept movin’ along
it seems so long ago,
i swore i’d never let it show,
but i kinda did
the years can slip away
when your tryin to get away
and i never did
i worked the day and the night life
i drilled the bars
and i drilled the ground
one for pay
one for the good times
one of em’ still hangin’ round
i put the other one down
it seems so long ago,
i swore i’d never let it show,
but i kinda did
the years can slip away
when your tryin to get away
and i finally did
