Alcatraz
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.
Hawaiian winds blow my past away
There's a freighter there that's southern bound
I'm on my way out of this town
Refrão:
There's Alcatraz and the man that has
Bills, loving pills, and drinking wine and song
Stand in line and fighting whine and wrong
Kids and yard and I'm a man that's tired and gone
There was a time when things were good
We had it better than we should
But things got hard and love got old
I got tired and love grew cold
Refrão 2x
