Capo 2nd fret

Standard (EADGBE)

Verse

I put this shovel down

Hire me on better ground

I can’t afford no gas

 I walk to work on the overpass

My teenage daughter’s knocked up

 Oh, Janey, this time, you really fucked up

You ought to be in the hospital,

 But I can’t afford to go the bill

Chorus

Hey hey, revolver

Don’t lead me on

Your shiny barrel’s long and narrow

Hey hey, revolver

I put this shovel down,

I walk the line into Hudson town

The blue Burger King billboard signs

Remind me of her mother’s eyes

She ran off to be a movie star

I hope she found what she was looking for

I promised Janey we’d see L.A.

If I ever made some cash some day
