Van Morrison - Back O' Town Blues Lyrics
You came to see me when the moon was newSaw you standin' in the pouring rainLeft my message on the window painBack on the street againBack on the beat againI'm back on the top againSaw me climbing to the top of the hillYou saw me meeting with the fools on the hillLearned my lesson and I had my fillLearnt it all in vainWent through it all againNow I'm back on the top againAlways strivin', always climbing way beyond my willSame old sensation, isolation at the top of the billAlways seeming, like I'm moving but I'm really going slowWhat do you do when you get to the top and there's nowhere to goJust how I get there will be anybody's guessWith all the so called trappings of successLeft all the deadbeats on the top of the hillToo busy raisin' CainI'm back on the street againI'm back on the top againAlways strivin', always climbing way beyond my willIt's the same old sensation, isolation at the top of the hillAlways seeming, like I'm moving but I'm really going slowYou'll find out when you get to the top that there's nowhere to goHow you get there will be anybody's guessWith all the so called trappings of successLeft all the deadbeats on the top of the hillToo busy raisin' CainI'm back on the street againI'm back on the top againBack on my feet againI'm back on the street againI'm back on the top again
