I have a tale or two to tell you
But the booze just makes me slow 
Oh I could rack my brain remembering 
But I guess maybe I'll just go 

There's a method to my madness 
There's a secret to this town
How there's a reason why I'm still livin' here 
Though I can't think of it right now 

I made a promise when I left for the coast
Twenty long years ago 
I made a life out of chasin' a ghost 
Twenty years takes its toll, oh

I got along for a while I guess
But it took everything I had 
I got to find a way out of this mess 
I'm in trouble and it sure looks bad

I have a thought or two to share with you
But the dope tends to cloud my mind 
I now destroyed my health searching for myself 
But there ain't nothing there to find 

There's a debt or two I owe you 
But the gambling left me poor
I put up my name in the sacred game 
And forgot what I was playing for

I made a promise when I left for the coast
Twenty long years ago 
I made a life out of chasin' a ghost 
Twenty years takes its toll, oh

I got along for a while I guess
But it took everything I had 
I got to find a way out of this mess 
I'm in trouble and it sure looks bad

I got to find a way out of this mess 
I'm in trouble and it sure looks bad

I got to find a way out of this mess 
I went lookin' and it drove me mad

I got to find a way out of this mess 
I'm in trouble and it sure looks bad

I got to find a way out of this mess
I ain't never seen you look so sad, yeah

I got to find a way out of this mess
I got to find a way out of this mess
