The man come to shake my hand, and rob me of my farmI shot 'em dead and I hung my head, and drove off his in his carSo on the run with a smokin' gun, lookin' for the coastOf all the things I've had and lost, your love I miss the mostAnd hell will have to pay I went a little bit too far I'd sayHalf drunk I stumble on the whiskey from the barSleepin' on the Santa Monica pier with the junkies and the starsFor when I woke a Spanish cross, was reachin' for my handThen the stranger took the place, the words I couldn't understandAnd there's nothin' but the groundIt's the only place I foundWhere I can lay my head in townDown on the boulevard, the sidewalk shuffles changeCracked out from the night before, hallucinatin' in the rainSo I borrowed me a quarter for a call to the other sideI told God that the whole damn world was waitin' in line to dieBut not me, this timeI left the trouble far behindAnd he tied his arm off one more timeThe man come to shake my hand, and rob me of my farm From Letras Mania
