Brian Jonestown Massacre - Ballad Of Jim Jones lyrics

rate me

I walked from New York and back from L.A. <br />

I lived on a mountain and once by the bay <br />

I bought an apartment and slept in the hay <br />

but there's no place that's softer than (your arms) <br />

<br />

living today is just getting so bad <br />

there's a look on your face <br />

and it says"you've been had!" <br />

you can take all my money <br />

but don't make me mad <br />

cause there's nobody meaner than (me) <br />

<br />

I prayed to Buddha, to Allah, and Jim. <br />

I turned to Jesus and stayed there with him <br />

I fell in deep but I learned how to swim <br />

now there's no one who's cleaner than me or than him
