Sometimes I go down to the river to stand out on the shore
And I drink and I smoke until I can't think no more
And then I walk into the water just to see if I can float
Sometimes I want to die, sometimes I don't
And that's alright

And if I go down to the city its because I've got a show
That's the only time you'll ever make me want to go down there
I can't stand the people talking fast and walking slow
If they just get out of my way so I can play my songs and go
That'd be alright, that'd be alright

If that sun comes up tomorrow and we have another day
I guess I'd do my best to keep these demons away
And I'd be alright

And now I'm back at home sitting in the dark
There's an empty piece of paper just waiting for a start
But I can't find those words, no I can't find that spark
It used to help me through them bad times when my life got hard
But that's alright, that's alright

If that sun comes up tomorrow and we have another day
I guess I'd do my best to chase these demons away
And I'd be alright, I'd be alright

Yeah that'd be alright, that'd be alright
That'd be alright, alright by me
