He's comin' 'round tonight Catchin' the train out Started work today It's no fun but it pays One thing that you're sure of He won't ever let you down Supposed to leave at eight But the sitters late Times run out to go To that evening show One thing that you're sure of He won't ever let you down He could never hurt you But it's so much to get involved, involved I drowned in glory To tell this story Of self denial And choices final He was there for you When your ex shot through But can you really count On him stickin' round? One thing that you're sure of He won't ever let you down He could never hurt you But it's so much to get involved, involved I drowned in glory To tell this story Of self denial And choices final Can't change what happened My youths been shattered Now can I really Bring him down with me? He can't play father to your son When he's eighteen years young I drowned in glory To tell this story Of self denial And choices final Can't change what happened My youths been shattered Now can I really Bring him down with me?
