Three leagues down
the soft side of
where you left my
Gold rose crown you broke down
and left me with a
Chest hum, a black gun,
and forty dollars
Chest hum, a black gun,
and forty dollars
Three weeks down
I drown myself in whiskey
Came back round,
and drowned out,
you left me with a
Chest hum, a black gun,
and forty dollars
Chest hum, a black gun,
and forty dollars
Streetlights talk the same way
my mother told me
I walk the same way my father told me
Back straight and chest out,
just like a soldier
Back straight and chest out,
just like a soldier
Wise men talk the same way
my mother told me
I walk the same way my father told me
Back straight and chest out,
just like a soldier
Back straight and chest out,
just like a soldier
oh oh oh oh oh oh oh……
You go down south, south
You go down south, south
You go down south, south
You go down south, south
You go down south, south
You go down south, south
You go down south, south
You go down south, south
You go down south, south
You go down south, south
You go down south, south
You go down south, south
Streetlights talk the same way
my mother told me
I walk the same way my father told me
Back straight and chest out,
just like a soldier
Back straight and chest out,
just like a soldier
Wise men talk the same way
my mother told me
I walk the same way my father told me
Back straight and chest out,
just like a soldier
Back straight and chest out,
just like a soldier
