[00:01.32]Old Fitzroy
[00:02.09]-Missy Higgins-
[00:12.00]I walked in here off the dirty mile
[00:16.86]swaggered in with a prison style.
[00:21.04]Aching bones and dirty feet;
[00:26.17]needing a bed and something to eat.
[00:31.23]I played for you and I played it right,
[00:36.90]I sang in tune and I danced all night.
[00:41.59]I cooked at you as the only one;
[00:46.48]I didn't know it could come undone.
[00:52.13]I hit the road when I was fifteen,
[01:09.60]When my mother died and my dad got mean.
[01:14.84]I've been locked up since twenty-one,
[01:20.28]I was my mother's only son.
[01:24.94]Forgotten most from early days,
[01:30.52]But I remember what she used to say,
[01:34.68]Little boy you're my pride and joy,
[01:40.73]The only good thing about old Fitzroy
[01:48.26]
[02:14.71]I feel the walls are falling down around;
[02:18.30]It makes me loathe that town somehow.
[02:25.50]I've been drinking all the wrong things all night,
[02:30.62]I've been thinking about
[02:32.67]what I've got to do to survive this life,
[02:37.88]this life.
[02:44.20]
[03:06.19]I feel the walls are falling down around;
[03:10.57]It makes me loathe that town somehow.
[03:16.49]I've been drinking all the wrong things all night,
[03:22.16]I've been thinking about
[03:24.14]what I've got to do to survive this life,
[03:30.74]this life.
