๐ Lyrics
He lived down by the farm house
Where the stray cats sleep at night
Just a deck of cards, two fold up chairs
And the ghost of his wife
And the devil lived in his doorway
Kept out the love and hope
He lived a long, long, long time
A long time ago
He lost one yellow Sunday
When he reached into his throat
And pulled out all the people
That he had been and tried to choke
But together they overwhelmed him
And he couldn't help but explode
He lost a long, long, long time
A long time ago
Asked a man in town and they say he's lawless
Said he was strange and he was all alone
No place to go
He went up in smoke
Well, he left in a hurry
When the cops kicked in his door
He jumped out the second story
Limped down the road and hijacked a car
He stuck his head out the broken window
And he howled like the devil's own
He left a long, long, long time
A long time ago
Asked a man in town and they said he's lawless
Said he was strange and he was all alone
No place to go
He went up in smoke
He flew right past the border
He ditched the car and dyed his hair
He took out his deck of cards
For a couple last rounds of solitare
And he slept just like a baby
Though the night was hard and cold
He flew a long, long, long time
A long time ago
When he passed through the devil's doorway
Well, he knew just where he was
He threw back his head and howled
As he resigned himself to dust
And they found him in the Rio Fuerte
His body was still afloat
He passed a long, long, long time
A long time ago
He passed a long, long, long time
A long time ago
He passed a long, long, long time
A long time ago
Where the stray cats sleep at night
Just a deck of cards, two fold up chairs
And the ghost of his wife
And the devil lived in his doorway
Kept out the love and hope
He lived a long, long, long time
A long time ago
He lost one yellow Sunday
When he reached into his throat
And pulled out all the people
That he had been and tried to choke
But together they overwhelmed him
And he couldn't help but explode
He lost a long, long, long time
A long time ago
Asked a man in town and they say he's lawless
Said he was strange and he was all alone
No place to go
He went up in smoke
Well, he left in a hurry
When the cops kicked in his door
He jumped out the second story
Limped down the road and hijacked a car
He stuck his head out the broken window
And he howled like the devil's own
He left a long, long, long time
A long time ago
Asked a man in town and they said he's lawless
Said he was strange and he was all alone
No place to go
He went up in smoke
He flew right past the border
He ditched the car and dyed his hair
He took out his deck of cards
For a couple last rounds of solitare
And he slept just like a baby
Though the night was hard and cold
He flew a long, long, long time
A long time ago
When he passed through the devil's doorway
Well, he knew just where he was
He threw back his head and howled
As he resigned himself to dust
And they found him in the Rio Fuerte
His body was still afloat
He passed a long, long, long time
A long time ago
He passed a long, long, long time
A long time ago
He passed a long, long, long time
A long time ago
