lyrics

Well he walked the walk and talked the talk
He stuttered as he stumbled
With half a brain of cellophane
He muttered as he mumbled
Oh how did it ever come to this
He drank his paycheques at the bar
Grew restless as a clown
Walked along the avenue on the shady side of town
Singin' oh won't you see me through the night

His heart was always in
The right place at the wrong time
He said he'd find his way
A little further down the line
Someday

He had an anchor on his arm
Those days had come and gone
An old deck hand on an old big boat
Is where his heart belonged
But his ship, his ship ain't coming in

He had a wife named Jenna Lee
She left him in the cold
He'd always thought the things he bought
Were made from solid gold
But oh, not just any fool should know

His heart was always in
The right place at the wrong time
He said he'd find his way
A little further down the line
Someday
