I was the cleaning man |
|
I was the cleaning man |
|
Listened to the radio play ' |
|
Cowgirl in the |
|
Sand'When |
|
I was the cleaning man |
|
I was the cleaning man |
|
After everyone had come |
|
To talk and drink and dance |
|
I could see the evening scene reflecting in the cans |
|
Now echoes of the empty room return with loneliness |
|
And in the darkness of the night |
|
I take the devil's hand |
|
When I was the cleaning man |
|
I was death's hand |
|
I was heroin |
|
To somebody |
|
I shouldn't have been |
|
I was heroin |
|
I was death's hand |
|
I was the thief who stole all those women and men |
|
I stood at the funerals of relatives and friends |
|
And like a |
|
Midas eye wishing my greed and curse would end |
|
When I was the cleaning man |
|
When I was the cleaning man |
|
When I was the cleaning man |
