The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I was walking down the road when I bumped into you

I was walking down the road when I bumped into you

you stopped me you touched me you looked me in the eye

I had a feeling that you knew me I decided you must die

I pulled out my Thornton special I shot you in the head

I threw you in the alley way and I left you for dead

then a man with a hat came up from behind

the sky went black and I thought i was blind

he put his hand inside my jacket and left a million dollar bills

he slipped his hand into my pocket and gave me women and thrills

and when I turned around to thank him there was no one there but me

and both my hands where filled with sand I was standing by the sea

we had a dinner at eight and women at nine

the party was great till we ran out of wine

there was a knock upon the bedroom door my knees began to shake

and this man came in and melted all the candles on my cake

he said I've come here to escort you it's time for you to go

I was running down the road

I was trying to leave

and I saw you all alone in between the thieves

and when the lightning flashed I saw somebody hanging from a tree

and as I turned to walk away I realized it was me

I pulled out my Thornton special I shot me in the head

I threw me in the alley way and left me for dead

down the road

down the road
