Hit me once for broke, hit me two for the road
Well, Abilene was a scream and a curse
But tell another joke before I go
For better or, baby, for worse
Well, back when high was high, and low was low
And ten cent would buy you the matinee show
Give a damn who the star, the theatre was dark
And took you away with the glow
But if I had a dollar for every wallet I stole
Oh, I'd buy this whole town, the judge, and the pound
I'd let all them bad dogs go
But I don't, so I'll spend my last on the wind
For she runs through my veins like gold
I took a spin in love with the top down
Rolled her three times off of Highway 9
May have broke a bone, oh, I don't know
Anyway, I'm still alive
A haunted heart don't beat but once a week
The rest is only echo
Parade of ghosts and dirty sheets
From Govell to Jericho
But if I had a dollar for every wallet I stole
Oh, I'd buy this whole town, the judge, and the pound
I'd let all them bad dogs go
But I don't, so I'll spend my last on the wind
For she runs through my veins like gold
