Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I'm standing on the outside lookin' in

I'm standing on the outside lookin' in

Whoa

I never strayed outside the law

I'm standing on the outside lookin' in

[Verse 2]

Room full of money and there born to win

No amount of work's gonna get me through the door

When I go walkin' down Bluewater Bay

Surface in the city at the end of the day

Whoa

[Verse 3]

I got a bad case of the bends

I'm standing on the sidewalk you can see

Somebody everybody wants to be

They got the means to justify every end

[Verse 4]

I gotta friend broke through illegally

Pulled a job on a small town T-A-B

Five grand down on his own little piece of Eden

[Verse 5]

And I know

And I know

[Verse 6]

The first thing I do when I get into town

Is buy a .22 and cut the whole thing down

No amount of work's gonna buy my way

To Freedom

[Verse 7]

I'm standing on the outside lookin' in

I'm standing on the outside lookin' in

Whoa

Whoa

Oh yeah

[Verse 8]

I'm standing on the outside lookin' in

I'm standing on the outside lookin' in

[Verse 9]

Whoa

Whoa

Oh yeah

[Verse 10]

Whoa

Whoa

Oh yeah

[Verse 11]

Whoa

Whoa

Oh yeah
