She sat right down on the sofa
I said: Where have you been? I've been waiting for you
Cause last night I had something so good
These days get so long and I got nothing to do

I been hanginaround this town on the corner
I been bummin' around this old town so long
I been hanginaround this town on the corner
I been bummin' around this old town for way too long

We spend all day getting sober
Just hiding from daylight
Watching TV
We just look a lot better in the blue light
Well, you know I gotta get out
But I'm stuck so tight
Weighed by the chains that keep me

Hanginaround this town on the corner
I been bummin' around this old town too long
I been hanginaround this town on the corner
I been bummin' around this old town for way too long

And this girl listens to the band play
She says: Where have you been?
I've been lyin right here on the floor
Well, I got all this time
To be waiting for what is mine
To be hating what I am
After the light has faded

Hanginaround this town on a corner
I been bummin' around this old town so long
I been hanginaround this town on a corner
I been bummin' around this old town for way, way
Way, way, way too long
