Top Ten Commandments Lyrics - Sold American-30th Anniversary - Kinky Friedman

(kinky friedman) 

Walking on the ragged streets of time 

A man is asking if there is a dime 

Someone can spare. 

No one pays him any mind, 

But surely someone sees him there a-crying 

When no one's there. 

And the washed out whore demands 

The bottle in his hands. 

Ah, mister, don't you weep, 

God knows we've tried to keep 

The golden rule and the 

Top ten commandments.

You can't believe the thing you've seen 

On the midnight tv screen 

And nightmare sent by satellite. 

Rain fire falling from the skies 

A mother holds her baby and cries 

And day for us for them is night. 

And love is just a word we preach 

For who can learn what none will teach. 

Ah, people, don't you weep, 

God knows we've tried to keep 

The golden rule and the 

Top ten commandments. 

And moving across on the city street 

A neighbor tried to find his feet 

And fell on down and slipped to ruin. 

The bystanders are all standing by 

Watching from corners of their eyes 

Wondering what on earth can he be doing.
