25 Years - 1991 Version

Don't leave me in the corner
'Cause I just wanna go home
Don't lock me in the darkness
'Cause I just wanna go home
Spent my life working on the land
Trying for something of my own, oh

It just ain't worth it, there's nothing in return
You can't take it with you when you go
One last look at daylight
The sun won't shine anymore
Everything was alright
But now they're closing the door

I found out I wasted so much time
Now I'm trying to wash away the tears, oh
It just ain't worth it, forget that pot of gold
There's nothing at the rainbow's end

25 years
I got 25 years
25 years
I got 25 years

I found out I wasted so much time
Now I'm trying to wash away the tears, oh
Just ain't worth it, forget that pot of gold
There's nothing at the rainbow's end
Just ain't worth it, there's nothing in return
You can't take it with you when you go

25 years
I got 25 years
25 years
I got 25 years

Just ain't worth it, no
25 years
Just ain't worth it, no
25 years
Just ain't worth it, no
For 25 years

Just ain't worth it (no, no, no, no, no, no)
25 years
Just ain't worth it (just ain't worth)
25 years
Just ain't worth it (no, no, no, no, no, no)
25 years
Just ain't worth it

Just ain't worth it

Just ain't worth it
Just ain't worth it
Just ain't worth it
No, no, no, no, no, no

Five, ten, 15, 25 long years
I'm gonna stare at the same four walls
How can a man be expected to survive?
I don't know, I don't know, I don't know

Help me
I ain't looking for compassion
By the time I get released
All my clothes are out of fashion
Help me
Someone's gotta get me outta here
I can't stand another minute
I'ma goin' crazy

Just ain't worth it
'Cause I just wanna go home
Don't lock me in the darkness (just ain't worth it)
'Cause I just wanna go home
Don't leave me in the corner (just ain't worth it)
'Cause I just wanna go home
I just wanna go home
