I'm thirsty, oh lord, I'm so thirsty Pour 'em and lay me on down I'm thirsty, oh lord, I'm so thirsty Pour 'em and lay me on down There's nothing but windmills and smokestacks As far as these two eyes can see My world is crammed into this backpack Sleep don't come easy to me Man, I gotta get back to the city Get back to pounding that beat This long list of failures ain't pretty The smell of these trees ain't that sweet Fuck all that's happened before this I'll do all my looking ahead I'll do all my living and drinking And sleep it off after I'm dead I'm thirsty, oh lord, I'm so thirsty Pour 'em and lay me on down I'm thirsty, oh lord, I'm so thirsty Pour 'em and lay me on down Man, I gotta get back to the city Get back to pounding that beat This long list of failures ain't pretty The smell of these trees ain't that sweet Fuck all that's happened before this I'll do all my looking ahead I'll do all my living and drinking And sleep it off after I'm dead These are the last days of disco The final farewell The fiddle is playing That's the fire you smell These are the last days of disco The final farewell The fiddle is playing That's the fire you smell Goodbye Goodbye I'm going home I'm going home I'm going home I'm going home I'm going home Going home Going home
