Junkie and the Juicehead minus me
DI was a stumble bummin' down the Gneon Music City sidewalks
With the JuAnkie and the Juicehead who had prGoblems of their own
DStuck with luck it kept me standin' just a sGtep away from starvin'
And the taAlent that I swore I'd show beGfore I'd go bDack home
Ninety dGays I looked the army makin' neither love nor money
And my oDnly set of clothes was gettin' clEmoser to the bAone
And tDhe Junkie placed an order with the PrGophet on the corner
And he tAold him of the sEmoul that hAe'd been seGllin' for a sDong
He said my fuGture was my fortune but I lDet it slip away
Slowly smAokin' myself broke on eighty cigDarettes a day
Findin' Gout that crime ain't all there Dis that doesn't pay
And wrGitin' words that no one's gonna see but did yAou said it who sGaid it
I can read my fortune in the boDttom of a glass
And I cAan see it's time for me to maDke my last request
Won't you fGill my grave with whiskey when I'm laid aDway to rest
So the boys cAan say I drank myself to deDad
Well I drAank the whDole thing over puttin' one and tGwo together
And it adAded up to mGore of what AI didn't wGant to be
I aDin't blamin' Music City but it's oGnly gonna see me
One more dAay and the wake up and the time it taGkes to leDave
Cause I Ggot a dirty picture of what could have been my future
In a PrDophet pushin' day dreams on a corner Emfor a fee
AAnd the wino lDookin' lonely at a bottle geGttin' empty
And a huAngry lookin' junkie huntin' tGea in sympathyD
And I bet thGat junkie's laughin' after the life he thDrew away
Slowly smokin' hAimself broke on eighty ciDgarettes a day
Pleadin' dGown the Prophet to a price tDhat he can pay
And writin' Gwords that no one's gonna see Abut did you said it who said it
GEvery empty bottle Emis my private cryDstal ball
And starin' iAnto the future findin' nothin' thDere at all
Which is what IG'll miss tomorrow when the neDon shadows fall
On the Junkie aAnd the Juicehead minus me
