End Of The Line Gov't Mule

And now the gravity of trouble
Was more than I could bear
At times my luck was so bad
I had to fold my hands

Almost lost my soul
Rarely I could find my head
Wake up early in the morning
Feeling nearly dead

I was never afraid of danger
Took trouble on the chin
Mountains I have climbed
That have killed a thousand men

I spent most of my lifetime downtown
Sleepin' behind the wheel
Never needed anybody
I was king of the hill

Ooh, when I think about the old days
Ooh, it sends chills up and down my spine
Yeah, life ain't what it seems
On the boulevard of broken dreams

Guess I opened my eyes
In the nick of time
'Cause it sure felt like
The end of the line
