She sat right down on the sofa
And said where have you been
I've been waiting for you
'Cause last night I had something so good
These days get so long and I got nothin to do

I been hanging around this town on a corner
I been b__min' around this old town so long
I been hanging around this town on a corner
I been b__min' around this old town for way too long

We spent all day gettin sober
Just hiding from daylight, watching TV (fading away)
We just look a lot better in the blue light
Well you know I gotta get out
But I'm stuck so tight
Weighed by the chains that keep me

Hanging around this town on a corner
I been b__min' around this old town to long
I been hanging around this town on a corner
I been b__min' around this old town for way too long

(Well everybody twist..)

This girl listens to the band play
She says where have you been
I been lyin' right here on the floor (right here on the floor)
Well I got all this time to be waiting for what is mine
To be hated for what I am after the light has faded

Hangin around this town on a corner
I been b__min' around this old town so long
I been hanging around this town on a corner
I been b__min' around this old town for way too long

I've been hanging around this town on a corner
I've been b__min' around this old town for way too long
I've been hanging around this town on a corner
I've been b__min' around this old town for way, way, way too long
