Wow billy what a day

Never thought of seeing you here

Funny how it goes

Never thought I'd see you fall

I heard you're down on luck

And now I can see it all



Judy took a train

Judy took a train to nowhere

Weeping on a phone

Never to recieve a call

So you remember well

Now I don't need you at all



You're just another guy

With just another lie

You're just another guy

With just another lie

I've been around too long



Hit me like a shot

When he sent your heart to nowhere

It really is a shame

You shouldn't let your big heart show

But then it's no big deal

Moving around it I know



You're just another guy

With just another lie

You're just another guy

With just another lie

I've been around too long



Gotta say goodbye

Gotta catch a train to nowhere

I didn't wanna lie

I didn't mean to come on strong

But then it's no big scene

Hanging around...



You're just another guy

With just another lie

You're just another guy

With just another lie

(? - undecipherable)
