I watched it all come down
To a Rock and Roll parade, just out of town
Making music, laying it down, for all these years

I watched it all come down
To a paper-weight at the business end of town
Loaded up and loaded down, it's a mess, it's a mess

And although I've watched it fall
I want you to know, I've seen it grow, yeah

And although I've watched it fall
I want you to know, I've seen it grow, yeah

I watched it all come down
To reflector shades and telegrams at dawn
Changing highways, on and on
I'm gone, been there too long

And although I've watched it fall
I want you to know, I've seen it grow, let go
I watched it all come down, come down
Come down
