from the songs album The Jayhawks
Yeah
I rode the rock'n'rockets, running into deadwood town
Didn't have much money to lay my head down
Her momma came walking down the street
Carrying the words on a string
Chorus:
So i sat myself right down, ordered some sweet cherry pie
I had a mighty fine time in deadwood
Tasting sweet cherry pie
Yeah
Used to pull the young, must be the waterloo
All i have to say is, "honey, i won't sly to you"
I got a job hit the gold mine from nine to five
(chorus)
Yeah
There's two bits in the gas tank, i'm smoking big cigars
Didn't have too much money so i started stealing cars
Sheriff came walking down the street
Looks like a hard time in the can
(chorus)
