Текст Old 97’s – Streets Of Where I’m From

I’ve been down
I’ve been down too far to care
I keep getting in my car
But I’m not going anywhere

And I’ve been had
Well at least that’s how it looks
And it’s not funny like on TV
And it’s not smart like it is in books

And I wonder yeah I wonder how the world keeps spinnin’ ’round
Where’s a boy with bad intentions gonna settle down?

And I don’t know what you’ve been told
The streets of where I’m from
Are paved with hearts instead of gold
Yeah, the streets of where I’m from
Are paved with hearts instead of gold

I recall
When I was twenty-three
Wondering how anyone
Could fall in love with me

But now I’m old
Hell I’m well past twenty-five
And I can’t seem to fall in love
No matter how I try

And I wonder where I’ll wind up but I’m headed west I know
Wind my way through Texas and into New Mexico

And I don’t know what you’ve been told
The streets of where I’m from
Are paved with hearts instead of gold
Yeah, the streets of where I’m from
Are paved with hearts instead of gold

And I don’t know what you’ve been told
The streets of where I’m from
Are paved with hearts instead of gold
Yeah, the streets of where I’m from
Are paved with hearts instead of gold
Yeah, the streets of where I’m from
Are paved with hearts instead of gold
