Written: 1994 Recorded: 2002, semi-live, on Fostex VF 08 Musicians: bones – guitar, vocals coyote – guitars, bass, drum overdubs Lyrics: A revengeful cry in the silent night A cop is filled with nameless fright He sits down there, in a bar They killed the man just two nights ago Now the gang is out, they’re bound to hang the foe They all did see it as a crazy game Now nobody wants to take the blame For the deed He pays his bills, takes the coat off the hook By the door he meets a violent look On a man’s face And he knows he won’t survive this night And he also knows he deserves his fright The tires squeal, a powerslide The lonely white man needs a place to hide In this town Two shots ring out, at the break of day That’s how endless dispair makes his enemy pay Around here The papers all call him a victim of rage And the message didn’t even fill an inch on the page On the page MP3 DOWNLOAD | Print | Back to "The Driving Years" | |
