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 flight
Oh it?s nothing
But a g****** shame
Is what it is
Oh it?s nothing
But a g****** shame
The smell of burnt exhaust
Drifts into the bar
It?s midnight in California
It?s high noon where you are
Motorcycles and booze
Dirty old perfume
Oh it?s nothing
But a g****** shame
Is what it is
Oh it?s nothing
But a g****** shame
I tried to go to sleep
In my haunted little room
The shadows are churning
In the passage of the moon
It?d break my heart to tell you
I couldn?t come so soon
Oh it?s nothing
But a g****** shame
Is what it is
Oh, it?s nothing
But a g****** shame
Tell 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 away
It?s nothing
But a g****** shame
Is what it is
Oh it?s nothing
But a g****** shame
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 flight
Oh it?s nothing
But a g****** shame
Is what it is
Oh it?s nothing
But a g****** shame
The smell of burnt exhaust
Drifts into the bar
It?s midnight in California
It?s high noon where you are
Motorcycles and booze
Dirty old perfume
Oh it?s nothing
But a g****** shame
Is what it is
Oh it?s nothing
But a g****** shame
I tried to go to sleep
In my haunted little room
The shadows are churning
In the passage of the moon
It?d break my heart to tell you
I couldn?t come so soon
Oh it?s nothing
But a g****** shame
Is what it is
Oh, it?s nothing
But a g****** shame
Tell 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 away
It?s nothing
But a g****** shame
Is what it is
Oh it?s nothing
But a g****** shame
