Times were hard when we were young
Times got harder day by day as we got older
I made some silly things that changed my life's direction
And then tomorrow was somewhere so far away

Where would I be without you now, my little baby
Where would I be without you now, my little one

There is no use in looking back, (yes) I know it
Those days are gone for good and better leave them be
And fate is all around it takes us to a joyride
Into a ghost train headin' on towards the dark

Where would I be without you now, my little baby
Where would I be without you now my little one

I would be in the gutter, down where the scum is
I'd be locked in a cell, only God knows for how long
Or I might be dead and buried, somewhere in the meadow
And the killer would be free and that concludes this song
