lyrics

2420 say how do you do when you've got nothing to gain,
you got nothing to lose, so they say
I was young staring at the moon, I got a '67 Phillipine Strat,
they say "who do you play"?
It's just a cage with an airhole for a socket, when you're singing in a can and the place keeps knockin' you down
High hopes, hell what you do, what you lose when you choose
to lay steady and low with the blues

Everybody was sayin' how come you stay here?
We were part of the scene and we didn't care yeah yeah
And everybody would ask me how come you stay here
But when there's nowhere to go you still got to play

Take me back cantina in Manilla, rucksack on my back,
workin for a weekend or two
Livin' on a dream 'bout how we gonna make it, ain't nobodies fault, when everybody goes and stays too long
How high son can you fly with an angel in your pocket
and a ball and chain on the inside?
Livin' it up, livin' it out, you gotta give what you got
if you wanna get out of the rut… you gotta give it all up

And everybody was sayin' how come you stay here?
But we were part of the scene and we didn't care yeah yeah
And everybody would ask me how come you stay here
But I ain't got nowhere to go so I just play…

In my head, in my heart, 2420
Time I had a brand new start 2420

How high son can you fly with an angel in your pocket
and a ball and chain on the inside?
'cause 2420 said how do you do, when you got nothing to gain,
you got nothing to lose so it's true
