Leave the City

[Verse 1]

Broke my heart to leave the city

I mean it broke what wasn't broken in there already

Thought of all my great reasons for leaving

Now I can't think of any

It's true, it was a hard time that I've come through

It's made me thankful for the blues

[Verse 2]

Half my life spent on a highway

Half my life I didn't choose

And I have seen the North Star

Shining in the freight yard

And I knew it was a hard time that it'd come through

It's made him thankful for the blues

[Verse 3]

It broke my heart to know you waited

I had so many things to do

It's true as far as a lot of stuff

You could have had a little better luck

You just called and just hung it up

One of us has had enough

It's true as far as a lot of stuff

You could have had a little better luck

You just called and just hung it up

Baby, both of us have had enough
