Ain't Nothing Gonna Change It

(album: Reaching The Cold 100 - 2003)

I ain't never been in trouble
I've always paid my due
I quit drinking wine and alcohol
'Cause it makes a fool of you
My friends all come and get me
And take me for a ride
But I've still got the blues inside

If they're right and I'm wrong
It's too long to be alone
If they're right and I'm wrong
Ain't nothing gonna change it

People call me on the telephone
I don't listen to what they say
The message goes "don't bother me
Come back another day"
They think I play the blues all night and sleep away my days
They're sick and tired of putting up with all my deadbeat ways

Well I'm gone, if they're right and I'm wrong yeah
If they're right and I'm wrong
Ain't nothing gonna change it

I go where lights are bright
And the money's good
I stay in all the best rooms in the neighborhood
A paycheque every week and use of the company phone
So when you call my number
No one's home

I'm spending lots of money
But I've still got a long way to home
I'm tired of wasting time
With people I don't know
I've had my share of women
Some I did neglect
But there's ten round every corner
Who will give me some respect

Well I'm gone, if they're right and I'm wrong
If they're right and I'm wrong
Ain't nothing gonna change it
