Lay down last night
With a tear in my eye
Woke up this morning
Tear was still there
Hangin' on by my habits
Nowhere's the next stop from here
Never get off, the wheel keeps a-turning
Nobody goes anywhere
Last face that I saw
Just before passing out
Was the blind gal who taught me
To stare
Hangin' on by my habits
Ain't enough to survive
Never get out, he's born to keep on moving
Nobody inside's alive
Lucks runs a line like a razor
Hanging's the last dance in jail
Holding on to the wheel by my teeth
Like a rattlesnake biting his tail
No sun this morning
Just onе thing to do
[??]
Hangin' on by my habits
Nowhere is next down thе line
Too late to get off, the clock keeps on ticking
Nobody leaves here alive
