You wrote 'The Kiss' it is beautiful
I can listen again and again
You never really got a break
From the car wrecks and the pain
You loved the sons of the pioneers
And the Hollywood cowboy stars
You were just trying
To put a hand to where we are
Living in a 55 cadillac
Five people sleep in shifts
Robbing liquor stores and going back
With the cash and rolling in it
You loved the sons of the pioneers
And the Hollywood cowboy stars
You were just trying
To put a hand to where we are
You never talked about your past
About the drugs and walking the streets
They found you with a needle in your arm
Beloved books strewn 'round at your feet
You loved the sons of the pioneers
And the Hollywood cowboy stars
You were just trying
To put a hand to where we are
