Black Friday Rule

I want to believe in myself once again
 So, I dream of a man whose hopes never end
 To kiss with a girl who's as lovely as you
 I'd give you my heart, if you gave me the truth
 And for every tear that is lost from an eye
 I'd dig me a well where no man could destroy
 I want to believe in a freedom that's bold
 But all I remember is the freedom of old (hey)

 Well, I lost me a wife, so I found me a plane
 Flew all the way to California
 This mess in my head is a mess getting out
 Ya drink too much coffee, I drink too much stout
 But after a while, when my mouth ain't so dry
 I'll dance up a storm, sure life's looking fine
 But as darkness falls, I return to my bed
 Don't ask me more questions, don't fuck with my head
 'Cause I've been down in this world, down and almost broken
 Like thousands of people, left standing in their shoe
 Down in this world, down and almost broken
 As thousands they grieve, as the Black Friday rule
 As thousands they grieve, as the Black Friday rule

 The buildings they shake, but my heart it beats still
 Oh, mother of Jesus, I feel pretty ill
 I want to go home where my feet both feel safe
 But there ain't no jobs in the old free state
 So, I must remain in my new adopted land
 I'm doing the best, hell I'm doin' all I can
 So, next time you see me, don't ask for my name

 For I am the king and sure long may I reign
 'Cause I've been down in this world, down and almost broken
 Like thousands of people, left standing in their shoe
 Down in this world, down and almost broken
 As thousands they grieve, as the Black Friday rule
