Just a rehearsal recording. Lead guitar player was out, so just a trio. But it let us get a little tighter.
Let me know what you think...

LYRICS:
1.
Well I’ve been tied up
Now I’m tied down
And I’m tangled up in knots
But you know, it ain’t the worst place I could be
‘Cause I’ve been busted up
And broken down
And lost everything I’d got
But now I’ve got someone to share their debt with me
2.
Well, I owe a lot
She owes a lot
And we’re never catching up
But I’ve never felt the need to save my face
We know we can’t keep up
To what we’ve never caught
And, besides it’s way too late
But now we’re old enough to know this ain’t no race
(bridge)
The Joneses were born with spoons in their mouths
So they could pay for their head starts
And their daddies all strapped rockets on their backs
But we could barely pay our entry fee
So when the gun went off
We were left behind—at the back of the pack…
3.
And now we can’t keep up
To what we’ve never caught
And, besides it’s way too late
But now we’re old enough to know this ain’t no race
