 It's a long,long way down to Reno, Nevada
It's a long,long way to your home.
And the change in your pocket is beginning to grumble
And you reap just about what you've sown.
You can walk down the street, pass your face in the window,
You can go on fooling around,
You can work night and day,take a chance on promotion,
You can fall through a hole in the ground.
Well there ain't no game like the game that you're playing,
When you got a little something to lose.
And there ain't no time, like the time you been wasting;
And you waste just about what you choose.
There's a man at the table and you know he's been able
To return all the odds that you lay
But you can't feed your hunger and you ain't getting younger
Your tongue ain't got nothing to say.
It's a long,long way down to Reno, Nevada
It's a long,long way to your home
and the ground underneath you is beginning to crumble,
And the sky up above you has grown.
There's a time to be grieving and a time to be screaming,
And a time just to stroll the wall
But you ain't got the double,and it ain't worth the trouble
Your feet are going nowhere at all.
