B
Born down in a dead man's town
The first kick I took was when I hit the ground
E
You end up like a dog that's been beat too much
Till you spend half your life just covering up

I got in a little hometown jam
And so they put a rifle in my hands

To go and kill the yellow man

Hiring man says 'Son if it was up to me'

Down in the shadow of the penitentiary
Out by the gas fires of the refinery

Nowhere to run, ain't got nowhere to go
