[Verse 1]
I been workin' on an old bridge
We lost in the last big flood
Doin' my time on a drill rig
Way down in that north coast mud
On the southern side a cable snapped
And we watched a man fall in
I'll tell ya, that's one bell you can't unring

[Verse 2]
Then I got some work at a saw mill
Slavin' in the sun all day
No amount of paycheck money's gonna chase these blues away
I got two kids and a wife at home
Livin' hand to mouth
Breakin' my back watchin' it all go south

[Chorus]
Watchin' it all go south
Staring at an open door
I think about walkin' away
Like so many times before
I was raised to stay
My pride says stick it out
I sip on my last beer
Year after year
Watchin' it all go south
Watchin' it all go south

[Verse 3]
So I roll with it, deal with it
Fight and learn to live with a world
That keeps fucking with my mind
I saddled up and rode with it
Even had a drink with it
These days you'll find me sittin' by

[Chorus]
Watchin' it all go south
Staring at an open door
I think about walkin' away
Like so many times before
And I was raised to stay
My pride says stick it out
I sip on my last beer
Year after year
Watchin' it all go south
Year after year
Watchin' it all go south

[Post-Chorus]
Watchin' it all go south
Watchin' it all go south
Watchin' it all go south
Oh yeah
Watchin' it all go
