He lived on the outside of town
Hollis Brown
He lived on the outside of
town
With his wife and five children
And his cabin fallin' down
You looked for work
and money
And you walked a rugged mile
You looked for work and money
And you walked a
rugged mile
Your children are so hungry
That they don't know how to smile
Your
baby's eyes look crazy
They're a-tuggin' at your sleeve
Your baby's eyes look
crazy
They're a-tuggin' at your sleeve
You walk the floor and wonder why
With every
breath you breathe
The rats have got your flour
Bad blood it got your mare
The rats
have got your flour
Bad blood it got your mare
If there's anyone that knows
Is there
anyone that cares?
You prayed to the Lord above
Oh please send you a friend
You
prayed to the Lord above
Oh please send you a friend
Your empty pockets tell yuh
That
you ain't a-got no friend
Your babies are crying louder
It's pounding on your
brain
Your babies are crying louder
It's pounding on your brain
Your wife's screams are
stabbin' you
Like the dirty drivin' rain
Your grass it is turning black
There's no
water in your well
Your grass is turning black
There's no water in your well
You spent
your last lone dollar
On seven shotgun shells
Way out in the wilderness
A cold
coyote calls
Way out in the wilderness
A cold coyote calls
Your eyes fix on the
shotgun
That's hangin' on the wall
Your brain is a-bleedin'
And your legs can't
seem to stand
Your brain is a-bleedin'
And your legs can't seem to stand
Your eyes fix
on the shotgun-aca | | | |  Reddit | X / Twitter | Facebook | Copy link |
