Missy Higgins - Old Fitzroy Lyrics

I walked in here off the dirty mile
Swaggered in prison style
Aching bones and dirty feet
Needing a bed and something to eat

I played for you and I played it right
I sang in tune and I danced all night
I looked at you as the only one
I didn't know it could come undone

Well I hit the road when I was fifteen
When my mother died and my dad got mean
Been locked up since twenty-one
I was my mother's only son

Forgotten most through the early days
But I remember what she used to say
Little boy you're my pride and joy
You're the only good thing about old Fitzroy

I feel the walls are falling down around
It makes me loathe that town somehow
I've been drinking all the wrong things all night
I've been thinking about what
I've got to do to survive this life, this life

I feel the walls are falling down around
It makes me loathe that town somehow
I've been drinking all the wrong things all night
I've been thinking about what
I've got to do to survive this life, this life
