Lyrics

Nothin’ but the worm


Verse 1
It’s closin’ time in some local joint in Tucson
Been sittin’ here since half past six tonight
Tryin’ to drown the mem’ries in this bottle
But they ain’t goin’ down without a fight

Verse 2
I remember the taste of her sweet kisses
And the way she felt in my hands
Now I’m here nursin’ this heartache
While she’s somewhere in the arms of another man

Chorus
Ain’t that the way the story goes?
Sometimes you walk away a winner – sometimes you fold
one day you’re flyin’ high – then you crash and you burn
Then you’re starin’ down at empty – left with nothin’ but the worm

Verse 3
Dumped a handful of quarters in the jukebox
Been listening to the same song all night long
But the funny thing is that I’m still here
Waitin’ on a girl who’s so long gone

Chorus

Lead

Verse 4
It’s hard to get up from the table
Maybe I’m just scared to go back home
The place just seems so cold and empty
And the ghosts come out when you’re lying there alone

Chorus
