Ballad of A Man
My love she lives on the backwards side of townMy love she lives on the backwards side of townWith her mother and her father and the greif that holds her downHer hands they're crooked they didn't use to be that wayShe listens w/ one and she throws the rest awayShe's done alot in her life and she's seen alot todaySo if you see her comin' just send her on my wayThis mans been cuttin' he's been cuttin' up some fleshHe's been taking lives he's been puttin' 'em to restMy love she knows him she doesn't want him deadShe's dearly in some trouble as she hides beneath the bedBut now I'm wonderin' just what i can doI go risk my life and i save hers tooBut now I'm bleedin' lyin' dyin' on the floorShe didn't know my name so now i'm dyin' moreWell who's the fool as i die and pass?I surely don't have to live my life with thatHe told her I's a sinkin' ship he told her i was throughAnd on this here mountain top the preacher says farewellMy bones blowin' everywhere but no one can even tellThis is just the sad story ballad of a manAnd this is the sad story I'm that man Aus Songtexte Mania
