The rain fell on my window, the wind was at my door
I tried to light my fire, I was feelin' mighty cold
My woman gone an' left me, to look after myself
I thought I'd hit the city, I don't want no one else
Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
I thought I'd hit the city, don't want no one else
Made a cup of coffee, smoked my last cigarette
I put on my big coat, never paid no rent
Trudging through the puddles, water's got my shoes
In my head's a sad song, guess I've got the blues
Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
In my head's a sad song, guess I've got the blues
Sky was gettin' greyer, day was drawin' in
Got myself a paper, light was pretty dim
Stood up on the bridge, I thought I'd drown myself
River look real cruel, couldn't make no sense
Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
River look real cruel, couldn't make no sense
