Blood from a Stone

Well I've been walkin

Down a one way dirty street

Tryin to find the answers

And I've been hopin

For a chance to meet

The rat that spread the cancer

And the lies they've been spinnin

And the smiles they've been grinnin

There has sure been some sinnin

But nobody's winnin

When the walls start to crumblin

You feel like you're stumblin

And nobody wants you when you're down

They took the boy from the city

But they can't take the city from

the boys lookin' pretty

Now he's lookin like a pity

Cut the flesh down to the bone

But you can't get

You can't get blood from a stone

You can't get blood from a stone

Well I'm a rollin

But my train's gone off the tracks

and my wheels are spinnin

And I'm a walkin

Down a one way dirty street

But my heart's not sinkin

From the love they've been buyin

And the blues they've been cryin

Now the time keeps a flyin

But nobody's tryin

Cause the love of the money

Didn't turn out so sunny

When the well's dry

No one comes around

They took the boy from the city

But they can't take the city from the

Boys lookin pretty

Now he's lookin like a pity

Cut the flesh down to the bone

But you can't get

You can't get from a stone

You can try

But I still got the fight in my eyes

Suck it dry

Cause I've had about enough of your lies

They took the boy from the city

But they can't take the city form the

Boys lookin pretty

Now he's lookin like a pity

Cut the flesh down to the bone

But you can't get blood from a stone

They took the boy form the city

But they can't take the city from the

Boys lookin pretty

Now he's looking like a pity

Cut the flesh down to the bone

But you can't get

You can't get blood from a stone
