The Debt Lyrics - Mott The Hoople

(ian hunter) 

There goes happiness 

Down that street 

Pick me up, put me down again 

Just when I was on my feet 

I get stoned every day 

My best friend he gone and went away 

It's her debt 

And I've got to face it alone 

Been a long long time now 

Been a long time high 

Making up promises that went wrong 

I'm in the sky 

In a ..(? )..not a trace 

I see her all over my place 

It's her debt 

I've got to face it alone 

And endlessly my trouble mine 

Won't let go leave the past behind 

It's a drag, so it seems 

I must live my life in dreams 

I must laugh while the other man wins 

Guess it's the season 

Brings a man down 

All my fingers are stuck on my toes 

And my feet are off the ground 

Yesterday the world went away 

I can't seem to find the strength to pray 

It's her debt 

I've got to face it alone 

And endlessly my trouble mine 

Won't let go leave the past behind 

It's a drag, so it seems 

I must live my life in dreams 

I must laugh while the other man wins 

Guess it's the season 

Brings a man down 

All my fingers are stuck on my toes 

And my feet are off the ground 

Yesterday the world went away 

I can't seem to find the strength to pray 

It's her debt 

I've got to face it alone 

It's her debt 

I've got to face it alone
