i was traveling a long dark winding road
what did i see from the seeds that i had sewed?
i found myself on a golden tipped road
i follow that gold
baby i'm a miner 49er you know
i'm just trapped here
hobo in san francisco
on the golden road
i saw a funny bird
it sang a song
i recognized what i'd heard
i'd heard the song before, sounded kinda nice
when i asked the bird what the words were
the bird chirped & said "pay pay the price"
i can't pay the price!
lord... i can't pay the price
i been so poor, on the streets of...
take my phone, take my money, take my wallet - take my life
but i'm gonna get that codeine & i'm gonna start to feel alright
ran into the problem when i followed geneva du$t
it went inside me & the sister i knew lost their trust
sorry sisters, didn't mean to make you mad
it's just the geneva du$t
it turned me into a bad dad
o what a price to pay when you make a mistake
it's fulltime freestyle baby so don't look away...
so down upon that road when i spoke to the lost soul
& they took me for a stroll put my shoes on petrol
i couldn't afford the gas
& the 200 i passed
& i lost everything i own...
3 a.m thugs coming thru said they want everything i got
pull a gun on me baby, you're gonna get everything in my pocket
i'm so destitute
speaking with a chipped tooth
my throat is dry, i cough once or twice
can't believe everything feels like a dream
but the mare is of the night
riding on a mare...
