歌词
Sometimes that path finds you
And it can make no sense
Still I tried to show love to the world
Tryna make my own case
A feeling you can never replace
I call it Crosstown Blues
From town to town I tried to find my home
These complexities of growing up had stunted all my growth
And after my degree I said that I would go out on my own
Rejected everything I’d known
(Crosstown blues)
But being away from family was hard
I never grasped the sense of unity that brightens up that path
Instead I thought that going solo was the way to make my mark
But then the nights were getting dark
I call it Crosstown Blues
(Moving from place to place)
In a house with folks I’d hardly met
Navigate the stench of alcohol and cigarettes
Friday night they partied I had spreadsheets on my legs
Do reports and go to bed
Am I finally having regrets?
Needed to escape but now restricted to my bed
Knowing that the week is gonna start over again
Start over again
I call it Crosstown Blues
Sometimes that path finds you
And it can make no sense
Still I tried to show love to the world
Tryna make my own case
A feeling you can never replace
I call it crosstown blues
Wish people would say what they mean
Had a couple different jobs
Not one of them were what they seemed
The longest hours for some pittance
A young man with some dreams
There’s those that take advantage
Sell a life with things you need
And I was sold right down that river
With nothing guaranteed so when you question people’s ethics
In all these companies
You are immediately a target
Progression hits the freeze
What part of this did I misread?
I call it Crosstown Blues
(Moving from place to place)
