Intro

Life was a ball of alcohol and pills and booze and gals

 Every hunger-over mornin was an unheeded warning that I shared with my lost pals

 And the music flowed and my chosen road grew wider every day

 Til the highs got low and my will said no, I can't go on that way

 Can't go that way, can't go that way

 Yes the highs got low and my will said no

 I can't go on that way

Sugar is sweet and good prime meat is so hard to come by

Sacharin is around again but today it's do or die

My baby is home where i belong and this is still my day

I'm hangin on and I'm comin on strong and i can't go on that way

Can't go that way, can't go that way

I'm still hangin on and comin on strong

And i can't go on that way

Up is down and next time around i ain't goin round again

When it comes my time i'm gonna stop at the line and forget where i been

Who was it said that alive is dead and night to some is day

Just let her go and let a new wind blow 'cause i can't go on that way

Can't go that way, can't go that way

Just let her go and let a new wind blow

'Cause i can't go on that way
