I put this shovel down
Hire me on better grounds
I can’t afford no gas
I walk to work on the overpass
My teenage daughter’s knocked up
Well Janey this time you really fucked up
You oughta be in the hospital
But I can’t afford to go, the bill

Hey hey revolver
Don’t lead me on
Your shiny barrel
Is long and narrow
Hey hey revolver

I put this shovel down
I walk the line into Hudson town
The blue Burger King billboard signs
Remind me of her mother’s eyes
She ran off to be a T.V. star
I hope she found what she was lookin' for
I promised Jeanie we’d see L.A
If I ever made some cash someday

Hey hey revolver
Don’t lead me on
Your shiny barrel
Is long and narrow
Hey hey revolver
