High School Gym

I've got a dream that repeats

Oh-oh, last night, it found me again

Where everybody I know who's gone

Is in the bleachers of my high school gym

The crowd started off small

Yeah, you keep your fingers crossed

But it's been fillin' up fast and now it's packed to the rafters

There's a line 'round the block

Oh, everybody wants another shot

So when I wake up cryin'

Well, I'm alright but you know where I've been

I was going somewhere but got lost on the way

In my high school gym

There's my old man smokin' his Pall Malls

There's my gran in her robe with the frills

And over there, on the end's my old good time friends

Who showed up early with the powder and the pills

There's just one question that's on everybody's mind

Hell, they ask me every time that I stop in

Can't you turn back time?

Can't you curve that line?

So we can roll the old dice again?

Oh but the house, it always wins

So when I wake up cryin'

Well, I'm alright but you know where I've been

I was going somewhere but got lost on the way

In my high school gym

So when I wake up cryin'

Well, I'm alright but you know where I've been

I was going somewhere but got lost on the way

In my high school gym

Oh, in my high school gym
