==Lyrics==
Let’s go down to take a look 
She said she reads me like an open book 
For all you know and all you care 
Well, I might soon go up in smoke

As we walked along the highway 
The sun shone down just like a curse 
The dust around our feet was a judgment 
And it’s getting worse - you say, “it’s getting worse”

Walked our dogs down on the promenade 
Seen them straining at the leash 
And she likened me unto them 
She said, “Your dream is just out of reach,” 
She said, “The hell that you don’t dare think. 
Maybe you’re living here and now - 
you live in honky-tonks and discotechs. 
You calling that living, boy, 
you don’t know how.”

Well it’s time for me to go 
My heart is heavy, my head is hanging low 
If there’s one scene i don’t need to check out 
One place i don’t want to know 
Where it’s always hot and smelly 
Lord it’s slippery near the edge 
Where many a good man has shown resistance 
In falling in the devil’s rim
