The Same Thing

[Verse 1] This town’s a prison in the great wide open There’s a different set of bars that I’m behind But you spread your wings and flew on up to Boston Honey you got out so tell me why can’t I [Chorus] I want to believe a man can change But I’m doing the same thing Same place every night Same folks under the same neon lights Drinking the same drinks Feeling the same pain Doing the same thing [Verse 2] It’s been three years since I could buy october Ain’t it funny how fast time can fly You grew up and me I just got older Wasted years and dirty friday nights I want to believe a man can change [Chorus] I’m doing the same thing Same place every night With the same folks under the same neon lights Drinking the same drinks Feeling the same pain Doing the same thing yeah [Verse 3] If I could only pack my things and hit the road It don’t even matter where I go The same old bus started wheeling off Yeah maybe I’d give you a call Heard Boston’s beautiful in the fall I get out of here if I could only stop Doing the same thing [Outro] I’m doing the same thing Same place every night With the same folks Under the same neon lights Drinking the same drinks Feeling the same pain Doing the same thing
