Same Ol' Different Story

He had it all, top of his game

A humble hometown hero with his daddy's good name

But he lost it all when he found the vein

One high too many, and he flew away

Big city streets, little country towns

The devil knows his way around

It's the same old, same old different story

Time and time again, I heard it all before

Black, white, rich or poor

It's the same old, same old different story

'Round every corner under the sun

Some lives keep going, some come undone

Some face the demons that others can outrun

That's somebody's daughter and somebody's son

Big city streets, little country towns

The devil knows his way around

It's the same old, same old different story

Time and time again, I heard it all before

Black, white, rich or poor

It's the same old, same old different story

Big city streets, little country towns

The devil knows his way around

It's the same old, same old different story

Time and time again, I heard it all before

Black, white, rich or poor

It's the same old, same old different story

It's the same old, same old different
