Lyrics
Tired (of being on the loosing side)
© Peter Farr. 13th August 2008.
I'm tired of being on the loosing side
I try to hide to hide the tears I cried
Someone with whom I confide
Is a million miles away
I'm gonna straighten my tie
I'm gonna make a new plan
I'm gonna get out of here
Before it gets out of hand
I'm gonna kick up my heals
You won't see me for dust
The pressures are down, the tyres are blown
Then crumbles apart into rust
Cos' I'm tired of being on the loosing side
I try to hide the tears I've cried
Someone with whom I confide
Is a million miles away
I'm tired of being on the loosing side
I try to hide the tears I've cried
Someone with whom I confide
I've said it before; you're a million miles away
Middle 8
In my home sweet home
I've got a brand new bag
My horse has just come in fifteen to one
I don't have to tell you I'm glad
I'm tired of being on the loosing side
I try to hide the tears I've cried
Someone with whom I confide
Is a million miles away
I'm tired of being
Oh so tired of being
I've said it before; you're a million miles away
