Cities and streets and avenues And the swamp where I don't go There ain't no point in looking for an escape goat I gotta blame myself The water's roads But I never run I had too much upon my mind There ain't no point in looking for an escape goat I gotta blame myself My family was bringing me down And I was beat myself in my vains There ain't no point in looking for an escape goat I gotta blame myself I gotta blame myself I gotta blame myself I have got to blame myself
