Everybody's intent on killing someone
and there's a kid on the run
The bullets stream out from gun to gun
Everybody's intent on being someone
gotta keep ourselves warm
A child in the arms of a teenage mom
Who'll be there, who'll be the next victim
Old friends meet on the edge of town
Chatting, conversations broken
Things will soon get better
Got the world at their feet
Not knowing what's around the corner
Down in the corner sits a broken man
Lost his money on the dogs and gin
Looks for his supper in a garbage can
Kids hang around by the old
Who'll be there, who'll be the next victim
Old friends meet on the edge of town
Sharing conversations hoping
Things will soon get better
While their children meet
God can walk on their feet
Not knowing what's around the corner
A real living thought and a certain future
A child in the arms of a teenage mom
who will be the last victim
Old friends meet on the edge of town
Sharing conversation, hoping
things will soon get better
we've got a world at hand
Not knowing what's around the corner
Or liv ing for themselves and future
Sharing conversation, hoping
things will soon get better
While their children meet,
got the world at their feet
Not knowing what's around the corner
