I knew a man in of colors who lived by his gun
Slinging bricks and getting chicks by the ton
Clearing the chamber is just a job well done
He kept his living testament in his denim vest
Wore it proudly over the bullet holes in his chest
A friend of mine in Nola kept a shiv on his hip
He robbed a local stranger for the price of a hit
Guess he knew the end was coming and he took what he could get
He never got the chance to smoke it for the trouble he made
Found him carved up like a turkey by the work of his own blade
Well friends I’ve seen some battles with the wicked and depraved
I’ve seen some born to living with one foot in the grave
And I don’t know what to tell you I don’t think they can be saved
If you’re standing at the gallows be sure to hang around
And to thank the undertaker he’s the last to let you down
