There was a kid so low, he couldn't stand up

No money, no respect and too much bad luck

Desperation had gotten to him at last

It was dark

Dark alley and a shot gun blast

And I knew a man everyone thought

Was out of his mind

He had a cane and seemed to be around all the time

And it's a shame, when a car rolls past

It was dark

Dark alley and a shot gun blast

Shotgun - no one ever thinks about it

Until your out of your head
