Reno Songtext

von James Reyne

Another day begins
Another lost weekend in Reno
I think my luck has finally ended
But in the shape I'm in I don't know

Couldn't tell if I was dreaming
When I woke before the dawn
Thought I heard Glen Campbell screaming
Where have all the flowers gone

As soon as I am able
I stumble to the table
Locomotive in my head
And I can't stop the shaking
Can't forget those things she said

Drink up boys Wayne Newton's buying
Losin's always such a bitch
And I heard Bobby Gentry cryin'
From the Tallahachee Bridge

I guess she never did believe
My promises that this would be the last time
But I've got no reason left to lie
You don't wanna mess with me tonight

It's a palace here
I'm the king and I'm not joking
Guess I'm folding now
The cards I'm holding ain't worth nothing

Couldn't tell you how I'm feeling
'Cause I know I've been left behind
When I see Jimmy Hoffa dealing
It's really crying time
When I see Jimmy Hoffa dealing
It's really crying time

Another day begins
Another lost weekend in Reno
