WATSON

I’ve been hung out on the company line
Ain’t got no money, running short on time
I gave my whole life, or so it seems
It’s been more like nightmares than the American dream

Never cheated to get ahead
I worked so but my dreams were dead
If tomorrow never comes
I’ll have salvation when my time is done

But the grass ain’t greener and the wine ain’t sweeter
I cannot believe I thought I was a dreamer
Played my cards somewhere along the way
Thought a king and a queen were my destiny
Left right here on the side on the road
I gave it my all I got nothing left to show
The story ends here with a fairy tale end
Just and old man, just and old man

You were right there by my side
I was never alone, never need a place to hide
You were right here, same place for years
I buried my dreams by a river of tears

But the grass ain’t greener and the wine ain’t sweeter
I cannot believe I thought I was a dreamer
Played my cards somewhere along the way
Thought a king and a queen were my destiny
Left right here on the side on the road
I gave it my all I got nothing left to show
The story ends here with a fairy tale end
Just and old man, just and old man

But the grass ain’t greener and the wine ain’t sweeter
I cannot believe I thought I was a dreamer
Played my cards somewhere along the way
Thought a king and a queen were my destiny
Left right here on the side on the road
I gave it my all I got nothing left to show
The story ends here with a fairy tale end
Just and old man, just and old man
