The Ballad Of Hollis Brown

Hollis Brown he livedOn the outside of townHollis Brown he livedOn the outside of townWith his wife and five childrenIn his cabin broken down

He looked for work and money,And he walked a ragged mile.He looked for work and money,And he walked a ragged mile.Your children are so hungryThat they don't know how to smile

Your baby's eyes look crazyAnd they're tuggin' at your sleeveYour baby's eyes look crazyAnd they're tuggin' at your sleeveYou walk the floor and you wonder whyWith every breath you breathe

The rats have got your flourBad blood it got your mareThe rats have got your flourBad blood it got your mareIs there anyone that knowsIs there anyone that cares

You prayed to the Lord aboveTo please send you a friendYou prayed to the Lord aboveTo please send you a friendYour empty pockets tell youThat you ain't got no friend

Your baby's a cryin' louder nowIt's poundin' on your brainYour baby's a cryin' louder nowIt's poundin' on your brainYour wife's screams are a stabbin' youLike dirty, drivin' rain

Your grass is turnin' blackAnd there's no water in your wellYour grass is turnin' blackAnd there's no water in your wellYou spent your last lone dollarOn them seven shotgun shells

Way out in the wildernessA cold coyote callsWay out in the wildernessA cold coyote callsYour eyes fix on the shotgunThat's hangin' on the wall

Your brain it is a bleedin'And your legs can't seem to standYour brain it is a bleedin'And your legs can't seem to standYour eyes fix on the shotgunThat you're holdin' in your hand

There's seven breezes blowin'Around the cabin doorThere's seven breezes blowin'All around the cabin doorSeven shots ring outLike the oceans pounding roar

There's seven people deadOn a South Dakota farmThere's seven people deadOn a South Dakota farmSomewhere in the distanceThere's seven new people born.
