Hey, buddy, you know me, I guess you've heard my name 

I was the greatest, I had my share of fame 
The girls, they loved me, you know I had them all 
But now, they don't love me, now they don't care at all 

I thought I could not fail  
I had it by the tail  
I thought I owned this town 
But now I'm headed down, I'm 
Standing by the roadside 
Up against a wall 
Now I'm going nowhere 
Nowhere at all 

I was the strongest, I pushed the world around  
I stood the tallest, I turned it upside down  
I thought I had it, I thought I knew it all  
Why couldn't I see it, the writing on the wall  
I wanted everything  
I had it on a string  
I soared above the ground 
But now I'm coming down, I'm 
Standing by the roadside 
Up against a wall 
Now I'm going nowhere 
Nowhere at all 

Now I'm going nowhere 
Nowhere at all 
Now I'm going nowhere 
Nowhere at all 

Hey buddy, you've seen me, you know my face and name 
Hey, buddy, listen to me, don't turn and walk away 
I thought I had it made 
I thought I'd never fade 
I thought I'd live forever 
I guess I should've know better, I'm 
Standing by the roadside 
Up against a wall 
Now I'm going nowhere 
Nowhere at all
