LYRICS:

It's rainin' down in Johnstown,

I'm waiting for the flood

Sinkin' steady drink on a Sunday

thinkin', "Somebody pull the plug."

She coulda done what she was told,

she coulda used her head,

She was a hooker with a heart of gold

but now she's fulla lead.

And it's so long, I'm movin'on,

my face no more you'll see,

This world's a weight chained to my back

Somebody set it free.

We shared a sunrise at the Mostrador,

she looked at me and smiled,

It didn't take long to hook that whore

and ditch that joint in style.

Well I showed her my fist, I showed her my tongue,

I showed her a real good time,

Last thing I showed her was the butt of my gun

and a shot straight down the line.

And it's so long, I'm movin'on,

my face no more you'll see,

This world's a weight chained to my back

Somebody set it free.

My soul is empty, my pockets full

now that my work is done.

I'll see ya, sister, when your minister

blows me to kingdom come.

I'm waiting for that final day when I get

what I deserve,

That's when I'll reap what I have raised

and meet the god I serve.

And it's so long, I'm movin' on, my face

no more you'll see,

This world's a weight chained to my back

Somebody set it free.

This world's a weight chained to my back

Somebody set it free
