How could I know
That you would fall on the floor
And let your money fall out
Into my hand?

What should I do?
I  had `em buck without you,
And you were gone to that
High promised land!

I didn't know I would get around
Into this mad, mad world.
But then again on my lucky day,
I didn't hear your dying whisper yell away
What did you say? 
What did you say - Hi?

I killed an old man
And I don't care
I left him lying dead
On the ground
Now I'm a man of the town
Although I don't get around
To be a man at the town
When I'm circling on down
To the town.

How could I know
That you would fall on the floor
And let your money fall out
Into my hand?

What should I do?
I had 'em buck without you,
And you were gone to that
Highly promised land!

I didn't know I would get around
Into this mad-man world.
But then again on my lucky day,
I didn't hear your dying yell whisper away
What did you say? 
What did you say - Ai?

I killed an old man
And I don't care
I left him lying dead
On the ground
Now I'm a man of the town
Although I don't get around
To be a man at the town
When I'm circling on down
To the town.
