Ballad Of A Deadman

歌詞

Oh honey take me out I'm a deadman Oh baby bake me something sweet Oh honey take me out I'm a deadman Oh baby give me bread to eat There are places in the damp Northwest where The bodies lie down head to feet There were losses in the California sunshine Tell you stories that you can't repeat In the winter when the valley's flooded Those were times where the rooms were cheap The summer dirt lines the corner's of your pockets I'm still buried there ten feet deep Papa don't place this curse on me Heaven knows I can't use it Papa don't place this stone on me Mama there's no future in it We travel on the back roads lightly Through Castle City and through the hills beyond Me and Joan on the Sacramento Me and Joan this is where we're from Oh honey take me out I'm a deadman Oh baby bake me something sweet Oh honey take me out I'm a deadman Oh baby give me bread to eat Papa don't place this curse on me Heaven knows I can't use it Papa don't place this curse on me Mama there's no future in it Oh honey take me out I'm a deadman Oh baby bake me something sweet Oh honey take me out I'm a deadman Oh baby give me bread to eat Oh honey where's the colours of the springtime? The pale green of an organdy dress Her shadow grows in the California sunshine But nothing else in the south south-west
