They got married early, never had no money |
|
Then when he got laid off they really hit the skids |
|
He started up his drinking, then they started fighting |
|
He took it pretty badly, she took both the kids |
|
She said: "I'm not standing by, to watch you slowly die |
|
So watch me walking, out the door, out the door, out the door" |
|
She said, "Shove it, Jack, I'm walking out the ****ing door" |
|
|
|
She went to her brother's, got a little bar work |
|
He went to the Buttery, stayed about a year |
|
Then he wrote a letter, said I want to see you |
|
She thought he sounded better, she sent him up the fare |
|
He was riding through the cane in the pouring rain |
|
On Olympic to her door |
|
To her door |
|
To her door |
|
To her door |
|
|
|
He came in on a Sunday, every muscle aching |
|
Walking in slow motion like he'd just been hit |
|
Did they have a future? |
|
Would he know his children? |
|
Could he make a picture and get them all to fit? |
|
He was shaking in his seat riding through the streets |
|
In a silvertop to her.... |
|
Shaking in his seat riding through the streets |
|
In a silvertop to her door |
|
To her door |
|
To her door |
|
To her door |
