Breakdown

Everly Brothers · Other Songs - Everly Brothers

The clubs are all closed and the ladies are leavin'

There's nobody nobody nobody knows on the street

The few stranded souls standin' cold at the station

And no where to go but to bed and to sleep



Lord, would you look at you now that you're here

Ain't you proud of your peers and the long way you've come

All alone all the way on your own

Who's to say that you've thrown it away for a song

Boy, you've sure come a long way from home



So it's so long to so many souls far behind to you

Fair weathered friends that you no longer know

You still got the same lonely songs to remind you

A song one you sing to be so long ago



Lord, would you look at you now that you're here

Ain't you proud of your peers and the long way you've come

All alone all the way on your own

Who's to say that you've thrown it away for a song

Boy, you've sure come a long way from home
