The Kid

(アルバム： Undress - 2019)

Well, he walked into town
He shot Johnny down
Then he sat on the green
He was back from the war
His brain was on fire
And he lived in the darkness of dreams

Heaven knows the kid
And the things that he did
Were wrong
But who is to blame?
It's as much his crime
As it is yours and mine
Shine a light on the dark
Of Ghost Town, New York

We would sit by the tracks
Playing dice and jacks
When he lived at the Red Motor Inn
And when his mother OD'd
He was just a bad seed
And not one of us here took him in

Heaven knows the kid
And the things that he did
Were wrong
But who is to blame?
It's as much his crime
As it is yours and mine
Shine a light on the dark
Of Ghost Town, New York

It's a left at the fork
To Cairo, New York
And that's where I'm stranded in sorrow
But how can I go
The fields deep in snow
And no buses run 'til tomorrow

Heaven knows the kid
And the things that he did
Were wrong
But who is to blame?
It's as much his crime
As it is yours and mine
Shine a light on the dark
Of Ghost Town, New York

Heaven knows the kid
And the things that he did
Were wrong
But who is to blame?
It's as much his crime
As it is yours and mine
Shine a light on the dark
Of Ghost Town, New York
