Black Friday Rule

I want to believe in myself once again
So I dream of a man whose hopes never end
To kiss with a girl whos as lovely as you
Id give you my heart, if you gave me the truth
And for every tear that is lost from an eye
Id dig me a well where no man could destroy
I want to believe in a freedom thats 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 aint so dry
Ill dance up a storm, sure lifes looking fine
But as darkness falls, I return to my bed
Dont ask me more questions, dont **** with my head
Ive been down in this world, down and almost broken
Like thousands of people, left standing in their shoe
Ive been down in this world, down and almost broken
As thousands they grieve, as the Black Friday rule
As thousands they grieve, as the Black Friday rule

As thousands they grieve, as the Black Friday rule
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 aint no jobs in the old free state
So I must remain in my new adopted land
Im doing the best, Hell Im doin all I can
So next time you see me, dont ask for my name
For I am the King and sure long mayI reign
Ive been down in this world, down and almost broken
Like thousands of people, left standing in their shoe
Ive been down in this world, down and almost broken
As thousands they grieve , as the Black Friday rule
Ive been down in this world, down and almost broken
Like thousands of people, left standing in their shoe
Ive been down in this world, down and almost broken
As thousands they grieve, as the Black Friday rule
As thousands they grieve, as the Black Friday rule
