This didn’t work out well, I’ll admit
Fast money, cheap beer and such
There’s lot’s of churches in Cheyenne
But no preacher moved me much
My mother meant well, I recollect
With words and deeds and abiding love
But I found it suffocating
And gray day, I’d had enough
It’s time to leave
Goodbye again, goodbye again
Goodbye Cheyenne
Get your things
No time to spend, goodbye again
Goodbye Cheyenne
I got a summons, not some higher call
And the only thing I know about the law
It’s not about forgiveness, it’s about the cost
I see my chance, I’m gonna run
A misdemeanor is exactly that
You’re offending society
But cross the line, you’re not coming back
Leastwise, that ain’t me
Fifteen, nineteen and twenty-two
They got a record of what I’ve done
But it can’t tell you who I am
So it ain’t true
And who I am and what I’ve done
Sometimes don’t seem the same
I watch myself hurt somebody else
My heart pulls up lame
