Lyrics

That long thin line,that keeps me away from you, It's causing my heart to break,and make me blue, I'm turning to the bottle,just to make it thru, The devil is taking over,i can't escape from him, The grim reaper is a coming,and things are looking dim, He's knocking on my door,but i can't let him in, I'm wandering the streets now,looking for a handout, Seeing all your buddies,they,re just coming about, You might as well have stayed over there,and gave another clout, Well,coming back here,is like a dog after a bone, No one seems to care,there ain't no one to phone, There's nowhere to turn,your once again alone, Chorus And that's what its like,when your all alone, Your wandering aimlessly,you got no home, There's no one to help you,when your feeling down, You can't keep it together,your coming unwound, Bridge Once you've laid your life down,for your country men, This ain't no way to get treated,doing the best you can, You hope you weren't waisting your time,for the homeland, You should be taken care of,for the rest of your life, By the one's that sent you over there,and gave you this strife, You were taken away,from you kids and your wife, No one seems to appreciate,what you've done for them, Its a sad situation,trying to save this gem, The worlds a better place now,for you and your friends, At least your wife and kids,are glad you made it back, All in one piece,all your body parts in tact, You can get some rest now,in your own rack, Chorus
