With a spring in my step And a song on my lips I came and found out How big this town really is Confusing lovers and confusing friends Making the same mistakes again and again Til all the guys at the bar, well they stay where they are And all the girls on the block, well you know how girls talk And all the lights on the street, incandescent and mean 'Cause the word got around, "You made a mess of this town" This town There's some people you meet And then there's people you know Some keep you on your feet And some don't let them go That's why I sit at the bar and I dream of the day That I get the means to mean what I say I'm gonna leave this town in a cloud of dust With a fifty cent lighter and a whiskey buzz And then there'll be a day when I come back around And when they ask why I'll say it's 'cause I made a mess
