[Verse 1]
Everyday nothing seems to change
 Everywhere I go I keep seeing the same old things
I can't take it no more
 I would leave this town
 But I ain't got no where else to go

Wake up in the morning to more bad news
 Sometimes I feel like I was born to lose
It's driving me out of my mind

Gonna catch the next train
 And move on down the line

 [bad word] 
I'll be ready
 I'll be ready when my train pulls in
 I'll be ready
 I'll be ready when my train pulls in

I know my time ain't long
 I can't live this life again

 [Verse 2]
Walking down the street you might wanna cross a smiling face
 But they'll stab you in the back as soon as you turn, walk away
Oh Lord, it's bringing me down
 If things don't change around here
 Ain't no use in my hanging 'round
