Lyrics

I’ve been working like a man possessed
Candles burning from East to West
As good as the money’s been
Think I’d rather have some time to spend
All alone
On my own

When you’re working like a man possessed
It’s hard to focus on too much else
I could use a good night’s rest
And a little bit of time to myself
All alone
On my own

I’m in need of a front porch swing
A old guitar and a song to sing
I’m in need of a cloudless night
Far away from the city lights

I’m sick of working like a man possessed
Battery lights are blinking red
As good as the money’s been
It’s got me wondering if its all there is
Oh no
No no no

I’m in need of a truck tailgate
Can of beer and a BBQ plate
I’m in need of a peacemakers show
Love to hear them playing Mexico

I’m grateful for what I have
I’m just struggling with the balancing act
I admit that the money’s nice
But I sure miss having a life

I’m in need of a front porch swing
A old guitar and a song to sing
I’m in need of a cloudless night
Far away from the city lights
