Keen Robert Earl - Undone

Fire one up and you toss one down


Everybody knows you been downtown


Been downtown late last night


Busted your head in a barroom fight


Fightin’ with your brother fightin’ with your wife


Seems you been fightin’ every day of your life


Can’t stand still, still can’t run


You put it all together but it came undone





Your soul is junk, your brain is dust


All your memories are eaten up with rust


Your nightmares real, dreams too stark


You love the night but you hate the dark


Your mother your daddy little sister too


Told you a secret they were countin’ on you


You were dying to tell but your dad said son


Button your lip but it come undone





So they turned you out when you turned them in


They told you don’t come back again


Now the years stack up like old beer cans


Dead end jobs payment plans


Broke down trucks welfare checks


Child support and back-seat sex


You’d kill yourself but you hocked your gun


You built a noose but it come undone





So you’re livin’ in a shack bu you wanna be rich


And you would if it wasn’t for the sonovabitch


The sonovabitch the dirty old whore


The butcher the baker the grocery store


You hate them they hate you


What in the world are you gonna do


It ain’t your fault but they need someone


To blame it on when they come undone





Now the storm’s comin’ in the sky’s turned black


It’s too late now you can’t turn back


Lightnin’ strikes on the telephone wire


You’re drunk as a skunk your shack’s on fire


The wife took the baby and the other two kids


The dogs are a-howlin’ and the chickens are dead


It’s your last night out and you’re gonna have fun


They’ll read it in the papers when you come undone
