Down the end of the barroom
Out of sight of the light in the window
His mind in his whiskey and his body in a folding chair
Far beyond repair
I enter his vision
He watches me look for my seat
He makes his decision and he stands to his feet
Lord, it's a long way down
It happened to me, wonderful sight
Only for me only for you
It happened to be a light shining through
From one who was lost and found
Just like me and you
Old man says, "Young man, my you're looking pretty green yeah
Like a stranger to this kind of place
Come sit at my table, come and look into my face
I've got a story to tell
There was a father and son
But that was a long time ago
And when the time came to run
I just couldn't say no so I left them behind"
