The West End - John Mellencamp[00:00:00]

Well the West End now the West End then[00:00:19]

Went by the other day just to see my friend[00:00:23]

His house was dark his socks were thin[00:00:28]

I told him "Let's get out of West End"[00:00:33]

For my whole life[00:00:46]

I've been down in the West End[00:00:48]

It sure has changed here since I was a kid[00:00:51]

It's worse now look what progress did[00:00:55]

Someone lined the packers out [00:01:00]

I know who that is[00:01:02]

Well my old man slaved down here[00:01:13]

In the West End[00:01:16]

He thought the future was bright [00:01:18]

Way back then[00:01:20]

But it beat him down till he had nothing to give[00:01:23]

It broke his back took away his will to live[00:01:27]

Now me I don't think much of the West End[00:01:40]

I don't wanna end up like the old man did[00:01:45]

'Cause I got dreams and[00:01:50]

They are bigger than this[00:01:51]

As far as I'm concerned[00:01:54]

You can keep the West End[00:01:56]

Well I guess down here in the West End[00:02:34]

Broken promises now and then[00:02:40]

It's not even fair to think they would[00:02:44]

'Cause the West End now ain't no damn good[00:02:48]

Out there somewhere[00:03:02]

You know there's gotta be a place[00:03:04]

Where man can live with[00:03:07]

A smile on his face[00:03:09]

And everyday something new begins[00:03:11]

But it ain't down here at the West End[00:03:16]

Someday down here in the West End[00:03:38]

No one will remember how[00:03:43]

The whole place began[00:03:45]
