    C majorC             FF
Well he carries a big knife in his pocket
     C majorC               G+G

And if he can't go wild he just won't go
     C majorC                   FF
Well he's crippled blind and crazy he's got his back against the wall
      C majorC         G+G         C majorC
'Cause the river so wide, and man his boat is so small

    C majorC                 FF
You can bet he'd gonna leave no turned unstoned
   C majorC           G+G
As he rambles down his road alone
    C majorC                FF
I got a face like a piece of granite, a life that's kinda rough

One's too many, 20 ain't enough
