Lyrics Heads or Tails - Shannon and the Clams

Heads or Tails

I’m a real live hobo
I lived all my life on the rails
I keep a coin in my pocket
And my only fate is head or tails
I had a wife and a family
I left them on their own
You only do it for yourself
But appreciate what you’re shown
Sometimes I flip the coin
Oh, I flip the coin
Oh, I flip the coin
Yeah, I flip the coin
Do what I want
I had the union pacific heading to Californ-i-a
I have the coin in my pocket and I wanna do just what they say
She said you leave us again for that drink you use as a map
But then I flipped the coin
Oh, I flipped the coin
Oh yeah, I flipped the coin
Yeah, I flipped the coin
Do what I want
