| I hit the road in a '52 Ford
|
| A pack of matches and a postcard on the dashboard
|
| The sun was set, the gas gauge was low
|
| And it was time to go
|
| I met the girl at a juke joint on the fly
|
| Needed a friend the day my mother died
|
| Her place was hot and it smelled of sin
|
| I guess when one life goes, another begins
|
| Hey now, what you gonna do?
|
| Got a fiver in your pocket
|
| And a switchblade in your boot
|
| Hey now, what you gonna say
|
| To make it go away?
|
| I found the city by the mark on the stamp
|
| Studied it under the light of a hotel lamp
|
| I found his work, I found their home
|
| I waited until I knew she was alone
|
| I didn’t want the child to see life
|
| I justified and it wounded my pride
|
| My mind was set that no one could know
|
| The girl had to go
|
| Hey now, what you gonna do?
|
| Got a fiver in your pocket
|
| And a switchblade in your boot
|
| Hey now, what you gonna say
|
| To make it go away?
|
| Hey now, what you gonna do?
|
| Got a fiver in your pocket
|
| And a switchblade in your boot
|
| Hey now, what you gonna say
|
| To make it go away?
|
| Light stumbled in through a crack in the shades
|
| Reflected off of the edge of my blade
|
| As I reached for the girl with the knife in my hand
|
| I thought, I guess the kid deserves a chance
|
| Her man came in as I started to go
|
| My last intentions, how could he know?
|
| The blade sank deep into my skin
|
| I guess when one life goes, another begins |
