I work hard, I earn my pay
And I do the best I can
In Boston town, it's sweat and blood
That makes a man a man

But the years are cruel, they take their toll
And they get you on the run
34 and the boss, he said
My time here was done

But it's alright, I'll carry on
I will persevere
They wished me well and they let me go
In the twilight of my career

Spent some time up in Canada
Before I was New York City bounds
They got no time for losers
In that big city town

So I took some chances, I bent some rules
And I made some ugly ties
The fountain of youth becomes a poisoned well
When you fill it up with lies

But it's alright, I'll carry on
Now I'm in the clear
I had to prove them wrong, I guess
In the twilight of my career

In the twilight, you'll do some things
You would never do again
But you were just a young man then

Now my time is done and no one
Dares to speak my name
Forgotten, a pariah
I'm a ghost that walks this game

I meant no wrong but wrong I've done
It's easy to forget
You sell your soul piece by piece
Until there's nothing left

But it's alright, I'll carry on
I will persevere
I had to prove them wrong, I guess
In the twilight of my
In the twilight of my
In the twilight of my career
