I Wish
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I sit alone almost every night
I watch those trains roll on by, out of sight
No It’s not the same old story, It’s news to me
I’d say so it’s not the only way to be
I worked in town on nothing for free
Nothing left in this place for, life’s offering me
I wish to God, I just wish that I
Got no money in my pockets you see oh oh
Gimme no, gimme no, gimme no, gimme no ah
No money in my pockets you see oh oh
Gimme no, gimme no, gimme no, gimme no ah
It’s not the same old story, It’s news to me
I would say so but the only way to be out
I’m typing almost every night
I watch my dreams float by, out of sight
I wish to God that I just been stabbed
Gimme no
