I Fell into Painting Houses in Phoenix, Arizona

歌詞

I fell into painting houses in Phoenix I'd been there a week and we picked up an illegal on the street The kid was 19 years old and had a wife and kid in Laredo, Mexico The suburbs in that town are a sprawl We never knew where we were at all We worked 5 days straight then we didn't pick him up and I knew that the kid had never been paid Probably just waited at the meeting spot all day We drove to a different part of town and picked up another kid For a job in a suburb I didn't show up the next day, I ain't shit but I ain't that way Got a job as a janitor at Turf Paradise and I moved in with a girl who worked on the backside At night I'd always read the news The Metro section of the Scottsdale Tribune A family left in the trunk of a car, or a family abandoned in the Desert alone To watch a horse break down or your girlfriend who can't stand the Sight of her own face, or to watch your sister drink her life away Get me out of here
