LIFE IN A VACUUM TUBE
Sitting around this tensile town with nothing better to do
Pick up my old guitar and sing myself some blues
People passing by throwing money in my hat
Gonna make it big some day but this is where I’m at
(CHOURS)
I’m living life in a vacuum tube
Getting off on where it’s at singing nothing but the blues
Living life in a vacuum tube
My fingers do the walking but my eyes do the crying over you uh huh
(INSTRUMENTAL BREAK)
Laying around this old warehouse trying get myself some sleep
Thinking about the songs I write and how to get them on the street
It’s taking all my money I’m down to my last dime
It will all pay back some day when it’s my time to shine
(CHOURS)
I’m living life in a vacuum tube
Getting off on where it’s at singing nothing but the blues
Living life in a vacuum tube
My fingers do the walking but my eyes do the crying over you
(REPEAT CHOURS)
I’m talking about life in a vacuum tube
Getting off on where it’s at singing nothing but the blues
Living life in a vacuum tube
My fingers do the walking but my eyes do the crying over you uh huh yeah yeah yeah uh huh
(TAG)
My fingers do the walking but my eyes do the crying over you
