Song Lyrics

The river's coming into view
And now I see the bridges too
Eileen was the only one who kept me
From living on the streets
You all turned your back on me
And now here I am again in the city

I ain't going back

It took every little bit to get free
Now you say Lilly's sick, Erwin's fading fast, Carol's hawked everything
Emptied the saving's account but still the mortgage is defaulting
That I owe you this and I owe you that
For putting shoes on my feet, clothes on my back
Fed me every day for sixteen years and now I need to pay you back
I'm sitting flush and you all know
So you say I need to give you what I've always owed

But I ain't going back
No I ain't going back
So why do I feel guilty for wanting to turn my back
On old haunted place in Felony Flats?
