Verse II (same chords)
Manhattan's Sinking in the Hudson Bay
If It's a Wonderful Town I Aint Seen it Yet
And I'm Sick of All the Shit Head(?) Death Ray Looks
From People I Never Met
Well the Sun Went Out On My Career Path
Got a Gray Hound Ticket and I'm Showin' Ass
The Interstate Thru Way Just Went Passed
Now I'm Takin' the Long Way Home
