Jesse James was a lad. That killed many a man. He robbed the Glendale train. He stole from the rich. And he gave to the poor. He'd a hand and a heart and a brain.
Friday night's pay night, guys fresh out of work. Talking about the weekend, scrubbing off the dirt. Some heading home to their families, some looking to get hurt.
Tear drops on the city, Bad Scooter searching for his groove. Seem like the whole world walking pretty and you can't find the room to move. Well, everybody better move over, that's all.
Hey little girl is your daddy home. Did he go away and leave you all alone. I got a bad desire. I'm on fire. . Tell me now baby is he good to you. Can he do to you the things that I do.
Well a great black river a man had found. So he put all his money in a hole in the ground. And sent a big steel arm drivin' down down down. Man now I live on the streets of Houston town.
I was eight years old and running with a dime in my hand. Into the bus stop to pick up a paper for my old man. I'd sit on his lap in that big old Buick and steer as we drove through town.
I saw her standin' on her front lawn just twirlin' her baton. Me and her went for a ride sir and ten innocent people died. . From the town of Lincoln Nebraska with a sawed-off .410 on my lap.
Driving in to Darlington County. Me and Wayne on the Fourth of July. Driving in to Darlington County. Looking for some work on the county line. We drove down from New York City.
I'm driving in my car, I turn on the radio. I'm pulling you close, you just say no. You say you don't like it, but girl I know you're a liar. 'Cause when we kiss, Fire.
Well there she sits buddy just a-gleaming in the sun. There to greet a working man when his day is done. I'm gonna pack my pa and I'm gonna pack my aunt.
One soft infested summer, me and Terry became friends. Trying in vain to breathe the fire we was born in. Catching rides to the outskirts, tying faith between our teeth.
Take me now baby here as I am. Pull me close try an understand. I work all day out in the hot sun. Stay with me now till the mornin' comes. Come on now try and understand.
Sometimes I lead sometimes I follow. This time I'll go where she wants me to go. She said maybe today maybe tomorrow. Go deep in the woods down the low valley road.
She walked into town in a long white gown. And the band played on with no one around. And the rice was gone oh hours ago. And the white wheeled limousine's standing alone.
Scabby head knobby kneed old nappy head. Thunder thighs, juicing all turning red. Pizza face pop it quick old nasty old. Pits old panty waist. Knotty headed fatty cakes.
Standing in line marking time--. Waiting for the welfare dime. 'Cause they can't buy a job. The man in the silk suit hurries by. As he catches the poor old ladies' eyes.
I'm on a long sojourn. I'm sitting here shedding my skin. Don't know about inside, ugly on the outside. They're all messing with me for the shape I'm in.
Well what have we here, what do I see. I think someone's coming up to challenge me. I love it, I say bring it, I'm well prepared. Confidence rises with the heat out there.
Spent the night over at a friend's place. Sunday morning came, he was in my face. Said I want to take you to a place. Put you in a state of grace. Drove way out to a cinder block house.
Here we go to the Tasty Freeze. Or maybe Dairy Queen. If so, then better lock the glove. There's something in there the old man loves. To break it out with a muffled shout.
