Lyrics
Kenny walks out into the night
The lonely night
His heart's been broken many times
Too many times
He looks out at the city lights
The dancing lights
And wonders where it all went wrong
But it's gone wrong
Take away these money blues
Take away these IOUs
Take away these money blues
Sometimes you just get used
Kenny thought the time was right
It just felt right
A house and home for a family
Is the way to be
But then foreclosure came around
Throughout this town
And now the tide is rising fast
A way too fast
Chorus
And now it's all over the news
Wallstreet is singing the blues
Handcuffed and photo shy
Time for the final goodbye, Oh yeah
Owwww yeah, Owww yeah
