Old Fitzroy

[Verse 1] I walked in here off the dirty mile Swaggered in with a prison style Aching bones and dirty feet; Needing a bed and something to eat I played for you and I played it right I sang in tune and I danced all night I cooked at you as the only one; I didn't know it could come undone [Verse 2] I hit the road when I was fifteen When my mother died and my dad got mean I've been locked up since twenty-one I was my mother's only son Forgotten most from early days But I remember what she used to say: "Little boy you're my pride and joy The only good thing about old Fitzroy" [Chorus]x2 I feel the walls are falling down around; It makes me loathe that town somehow I've been drinking all the wrong Things all night I've been thinking about what I've got to do to survive this life
