Rich Bitch

Hollis Brown, he lived on the outside of town

Hollis Brown, he lived on the outside of town

With his wife and five children

And his cabin broken down

You looked for work and money and you walked a rugged mile

You looked for work and money and you walked a rugged mile

Your children are so hungry

That they don't know how to smile

Your baby's eyes look crazy, they're a tuggin' at your sleeve

Your baby's eyes look crazy, they're a tuggin' at your sleeve

You walk the floor and wonder why

With every breath you breathe

The rats have got your flour, bad blood it got your mare

The rats have got your flour, bad blood it got your mare

If there's anyone that knows

Is there anyone that cares?

You prayed to the Lord above oh, please send you a friend

You prayed to the Lord above oh, please send you a friend

Your empty pocket tell you

That you ain't a got no friend

Your babies are crying louder now, it's pounding on your brain

Your babies are crying louder now, it's pounding on your brain

Your wife's screams are stabbin' you

Like the dirty drivin' rain

Your grass is turning black, there's no water in your well

Your grass is turning black, there's no water in your well

Your spent your last lone dollar

On seven shotgun shells

Way out in the wilderness, a cold coyote calls

Way out in the wilderness, a cold coyote calls

Your eyes fix on the shotgun

That's hangin' on the wall

Your brain is a bleedin' and your legs can't seem to stand

Your brain is a bleedin' and your legs can't seem to stand

Your eyes fix on the shotgun

That you're holdin' in your hand

There's seven breezes a blowin' all around the cabin door

There's seven breezes a blowin' all around the cabin door

Seven shots ring out

Like the ocean's pounding roar

There's seven people dead on a South Dakota farm

There's seven people dead on a South Dakota farm

Somewhere in the distance

There's seven new people born
