I was down at the Hotel Canfield
I was waiting on the Domino's man
While that mother of rivers was rolling deep and wide
I was thinking better of my plans
Lord, I ain't what I used to be
Because it's all taken so much of me
This isn't how it was supposed to be
But open doors and windows don't set anybody free
Life's just looking for something other than what you're doing
But it ain't like I've got anywhere to be
Life's just getting ready to be gone, gone, gone
And every place just looks the same to me
(Instrumental)
I was down at the Hotel Canfield
I was locked out of the Rainbow Lounge
But it doesn't matter if they're closed or if they're open
Because my ghost will be there, just hanging around
Lord, I ain't what I used to be
Because it's all taken so much of me
And this isn't how it was supposed to be
But road maps and midnights don't set anybody free
Life's just looking for something other than what you're doing
But it ain't like I've got anywhere to be
Life's just getting ready to be gone, gone, gone
And every place just looks the same to me
I'm just getting ready to be gone, gone, gone
And every place just looks the same to me
Yeah, every place just looks the same to me
