Damn Shame

I hid out on the front porch
I laid up in my mind
I looked for me a love
The best one I could find
He got himself a ticket on an international flightOh, its nothing
But a goddamn shame
Is what it is
Oh, its nothing
But a goddamn shameThe smell of burnt exhaust
Drifts into the bar
Its midnight in California
Its high noon where you are
Motorcycles and booze, dirty old perfumeOh, its nothing
But a goddamn shame
Is what it is
Oh, its nothing
But a goddamn shameI tried to go to sleep
In my haunted little room
The shadows are churning
In the passage of the moon
Itd break my heart to tell you, I couldnt come so soonOh, its nothing
But a goddamn shame
Is what it is
Oh, its nothing
But a goddamn shameTell me one more time
Why you went away
It makes a little sense
In the light of day
When evening comes around all my senses fly awayIts nothing
But a goddamn shame
Is what it is
Oh, its nothing
But a goddamn shame
