Yeah, yeah, yeah

I don't know why I come here

But I know I'll never leave

It's the only place

I wanna be

Yeah, yeah, yeah

I'm a long way gone

but I ain't short-lived

I got knee-deep pockets

that leak like a sieve

I give one tenth throughout

the course of the night

And if I don't go home

then I did things right

I'd like to settle down

but I ain't that guy

'Cause everything I ever did

I always did on the fly

I stay stuck

in the rut like I should

You know, I do it for the love

of everything that's still good

I don't know why I come here

But I know I'll never leave

It's the only place

I wanna be

Yeah, yeah, yeah
