Cigarettes and Weed

So I wrote this when I was just a teen... Still love it and it is one of my most catchy tunes as well as one of my most popular.

"Cigarettes and Weed"
All lyrics by Grant Walker, All rights reserved

Aint got a dollar in my pocket, or a penny in my shoes
I'm packing all my bags cause there aint nothing to loose
While in the Carolinas, I learned to play guitar
And everyone was telling me "Son, that aint gonna get you far"

Well I went about my business
I said I'm doing fine
The changing of the seasons
Has made me loose my mind

So I moved into the city and found myself some pay
I sat on the couch and watched my dreams fade away
I wasted all my money on cigarettes and weed
I burned away the dollars just to fuel my greedy needs

Well I went about my business
I said I'm doing fine
I may have lost my reason
But I'll never loose my rhyme

Didn't have to be this way
It was me who let it slip away
I just hope I'm not too late
Another ghost of yesterday

But I have too many now
And I need to break free some how
And find my way
