Pawtuckets
Going down



The sound of the water
Coming over my ears
Reinforces that I'm going down
I move my arms and kick my legs
And try to make you understand
The things you say just bring me down
You light another cigarette
To keep your thinking straight
Nothing like a rush that you have lost
Caught outside the fences
Of this clouded indecision
And all those tears that ran me off
When it all fades away
It's better off if we go our own way
I'm gonna keep on
This same old road
Until I top that hill
I'm gonna carry this heavy load
Twenty years in a river town
And the last four I
ve been going down
Some things you just can't figure out
But somewhere in between Kentucky and the Georgia line
Is where I'll take my final bow
A southern man is never just as simple as he seems
Although we all share a common ground
The beauty of the land is something close to God and man
And unbroken circles
Are where the heart is found
When it all fades away
It's better off if we go our own way
I'm gonna keep on
This same old road
Until I top that hill
I'm gonna carry this heavy load

Repeat Chorus
