Bottom Of The World

Well my daddy told me, looking back
The best friend you'll have is a railroad track
So when I was thirteen I said I'm rolling my own
And I'm leaving Missouri and I'm never coming home
And I'm lost, and I'm lost
And I'm lost at the bottom of the world
I'm handcuffed to the bishop and the barbershop liar
I'm lost at the bottom of the world
Satchel Pudding and Lord God knows
Sitting by the fire with a busted nose
That French egg yeller is too damn rare
But the white part's perfect for slicking down your hair
And I'm lost, and I'm lost
And I'm lost at the bottom of the world
I'm handcuffed to the bishop and the barbershop liar
I'm lost at the bottom of the world
Black Jack Ruby and Nimrod Kane
The moon's the color of a coffee stain
Jesse Frank and Billy Joe Hoax
But who is the king of all of these folks?
And I'm lost, and I'm lost
And I'm lost at the bottom of the world
I'm handcuffed to the bishop and the barbershop liar
I'm lost at the bottom of the world
Well I dined last night with Scarface Ron
On tilapia fishcakes and fried black swan
Razorweed onion and peacock squirrel
And I dreamed all night about a beautiful girl
And I'm lost, and I'm lost
And I'm lost at the bottom of the world
I'm handcuffed to the bishop and the barbershop liar
I'm lost at the bottom of the world
Well God's green hand is where I slept last
He balanced a diamond on a blade of grass
And I woke me up with a cardinal bird
And when I wanna talk he hangs on every word
And I'm lost, and I'm lost
And I'm lost at the bottom of the world
I'm handcuffed to the bishop and the barbershop liar
I'm lost at the bottom of the world
