Messin' With The Kid (2004 Remaster)

It ain't too easy bein' a young man

Goin' 'round in circles, honey, all the time

You've played their game now for so long, can't see

What in the world they're tryna do to me

Sometimes you get that old lost feelin'

Sometimes it hits you when you're feelin' down

It's that old feelin', honey, brings you down

I say, It makes you crawl

You walk down the main street out in the city

See all the girls, now they're so pretty

But all their smilin' faces, yeah, just gonna pass you by

It don't make no difference, no matter how hard you try

Sometimes you get that old lost feelin'

Sometimes it hits you when you're feelin' down

It's that old feelin', but it brings you down

I said, It makes you crawl

Hang around in alleys, you hang around in bars

Just lookin' for some fun, but you don't get none, and there you are

Lookin' for some action, lookin' for some fun

But you're down in the gutter and you don't get none, oh no

Just nothin' left to do at night, yeah

How do you feel now that it's all over?

Your kid dreams all melted under the sun

Just like a kid take a trip down to the sea

I'm stuck out in the middle

And there's just nothin' left to say

But sometimes you get that old lost feelin'

Sometimes it hits you when you're feelin' down

It's that old feelin', honey, brings you down

I said, It makes you crawl, yeah
