Put that chicken in your yard
Out of it's misery
Its feathers torn apart, no
Rooster can be more
Ruthless than you more
Stupid than me
I found your
Angel in the crow's nest
It's a god awful mess up here
She's clawed through the floor
Nobody seems to stick around
How much more can you take
Old men fire from their windows
Warning shots over your head
And your dearest friends
Are all coming around with their
Tails between their legs
But your engine is
Still running, although
The gears are covered with grime
Everybody is a little hard to love
Sometimes
You are my favorite because
You're a long shot
You are my enemy
Because you forgot
Generous people, they fill me with doubt
But that's something I'd rather not
Talk about
And no heavy charge can make
Me stay, I'm a
No good Al Joad anyway
I'll never lie in the back
Of no truck
So if you want a whole lot, but
Without getting caught
Babe you better go
Get in line
Everybody is a little hard
To love sometimes
The first person I realized was dying
Thanked everyone for the cake
Soft and low. Now
I can tell the ground
Barely feels my footsteps
As I must go
