Some old tale the old folks told

On a road lined with sugarcane

Here lately it's like they've

Forgotten his name

He returns standin' proud and true

Yeah the new's worn off of his welcome home
    C
Like the heat burnin' off the dew
F
Empty bottles that mean the bills ain't gettin' paid
   Am
Same holes knocked in the walls
   Gm
Mama don't fight back like in her younger days
   C
Going over the edge well it's a hell of a fall

Can he just go back a page?

To live down or try to run away from
