Straight and Sober

I don't want that girl

To come back through that door

I don't do that cause

I don't want her anymore

I don't walk down to the edge

And fall down on my knees

Keep my nose to the wind

I'll do only what I please

(chorus)

And the road's straight and sober

We're suffering now

Won't you come apart at the seams

And the band's growing older

And the plans, they wear down

And I know we'll never get to sea

On the shore of the banks

We signal with the lights

Lanterns burn with our own

Will flare a thousand nights

Pick up sail, count the coin

The copper and the stone

Fill your belly with fire

And sip the soldier's own

(repeat chorus)

Yeah I know, we'll never get to sea
