Black Friday Rule Lyrics

    I want to believe in myself once again
    So I dream of a man whose hopes never end
    To kiss with a girl who's as lovely as you
    I'd give you my heart, if you gave me the truth

    And for every tear that is lost from an eye
    I'd dig me a well where no man could destroy
    I want to believe in a freedom that's bold
    But all I remember is the freedom of old

    Well I lost me a wife, so I found me a plane
    Flew all the way to California
    This mess in my head is a mess getting out
    Ya drink too much coffee, I drink too much stout

    But after a while, when my mouth's not so dry
    I'll dance up a storm, sure life's looking fine
    But as darkness falls, I return to my bed
    Don't ask me more questions, don't fuck with my head

    I've been down in this world, down and almost broken
    Like thousands of people, left standing in their shoe
    I've been down in this world, down and almost broken
    As thousands they grieve, as the Black Friday rule

    The buildings they shake but my heart it beats still
    Oh mother of Jesus, I feel pretty ill
    I want to go home where my feet both feel safe
    But there ain't no jobs in the old free state

    So I must remain in my new adopted land
    I'm doing the best, Hell I'm doin' all I can
    So next time you see me, don't ask for my name
    For I am the King and sure long may I reign

    I've been down in this world, down and almost broken
    Like thousands of people, left standing in their shoe
    I've been down in this world, down and almost broken
    As thousands they grieve, as the Black Friday rule

    I've been down in this world, down and almost broken
    Like thousands of people, left standing in their shoe
    I've been down in this world, down and almost broken
    As thousands they grieve, as the Black Friday rule
