The Ditch

WE'LL RUN, RUN ON TOWARDS THE SUMMER

REACH FOR WARMER DAYS

WE CAN MAKE IT OUT, WE CAN FIND A WAY

IF WE CAN JUST MAKE IT THROUGH THE WINTER

BUT THE WINTER'S TOO DAMN COLD

CAUSE NOW WE'RE IN A DITCH

AND THE BOTTOMS ALL WE KNOW

DANNY MADE A DEVIL'S DEAL IN DALLAS

SELLING DOPE TO FEED HIS FAMILY

THE HUNGER HIT HIS VEINS

AND NOW HE'S PRAYING

HE'S PRAYING ON HIS KNEES

BOBBY CAUGHT A BUM RAP UP IN BOSTON

WASHED SOME MONEY CLEAN

TO HELP A FRIEND

BOBBY TOOK THE HEAT, HE'S IN A JAIL CELL

HIS FRIEND IS IN THE WIND

DEBBIE MET A DEADBEAT UP IN DENVER

HE TOLD HER PRETTY LIES

TO KEEP HER WEAK

HE TOOK HER FOR A RIDE,

SHE LOST THE HOUSE NOW

SHE TAKES PILLS TO FALL ASLEEP
