Copper on the corner and he loaded two rounds

You spend half your life trying to turn the other half around

They cleared the streets and then they closed the schools

Did you lose your head when the farm went down?
Or was it when your daddy died after he moved to town?
And I know your mama calls you good for nothing
She says her baby is a failer and she don't want you calling

And I tried to come clean, but I guess it's no use
Your face is all over the six o'clock news
They cleared the streets and then they closed the school
I can't even get inside


Peter, sweet baby, there's just something that I gotta say to you
I'm gonna have your baby this coming June
We could get a little place down by Gilmore park
You could do a little time and save my broken heart

And I tried to come clean, but I guess it's no use
Your face is all over the six o'clock news
They cleared the streets and then they closed the schools
I can't even get inside

Copper went ahead and he just shot you through


C                            G
Now you're lying dead on the avenue


    Am                     C
And I can't feel my broken heart


Am                     C
I can't feel my broken heart
