I'm a man with no bounty
I'm a furnace with no coal
From the city to the county
Aimlessly I stroll
The demons that surround me
Stalk my way and take their toll
I'm a man with no light left in his soul
This cruel world has shattered
What few dreams I had
My friends are lost and scattered
My fleeting looks are sad
I stand with my hat in hand
Till my name's called on the roll
I'm a man with no light left in his soul
The cards are stacked against me
I was dealt no aces high
No angel would defend me
When I drew the evil eye
Now no woman will befriend me
When I'm deep down in a hole
I'm a man with no light left in his soul
I've born so many curses
As I walked this lonely road
I've sung so many verses
Of that sad and mournful ode
These hands and feet
Have worked to death
This heart and mind I stole
I'm a man with no light left in his soul
