[Intro]
One two three four
[Verse 1]
Well, a great black river a man had found
So he put all his money in a hole in the ground
And sent a big steel arm drivin' down, down, down
Man, now I live on the streets of Houston town
[Verse 2]
Packed up my wife and kids when winter came along
And we headed down south with just spit and a song
But they said, "Sorry, son, it's gone, gone, gone"
Yeah, it's all gone
[Verse 3]
Well, there's men hunkered down by the railroad tracks
The Elkhorn Special blowin' my hair back
Tents pitched on the highway in the dirty moonlight
And I don't know where I'm gonna sleep tonight
[Verse 4]
Parked in the lumber yard freezin' our asses off
My kids in the back seat got a graveyard cough
Well, I'm sleepin' up in front with my wife
Billy club tappin' on the windshield in the middle of the night
Says, "Move along man, yeah, move along"
One two three four
