"Pretty Annie" (2010).

Poor like a sailor
Hungry like a ghost
Leaving all the places
I had to love the most
Sweetening the sickness
Wherever it may be
Seeing pretty Annie
Coming back to me

I’ve seen it all
Along the road
I’ve been thru everything
To get her soul
And now I’m stoned
On her affairs
Read all about it
I’ve met here where
The sun is bare
Like pilgrim bones
I’ve seen it all
Along the road
Pretty Annie, I want my gold

Can’t get lower
Guess this is how I end
Back on junkie alleys
Home sweet ole trash
Playing my routines
Older than the world
Seeing pretty Annie
When it’s getting cold

I’ve seen it all
Along the road
I’ve been thru everything
Golden shot swirl
And now I’m dead
To papers low
Sold all my guitars
Quit the midnight show
The moon’s a wreck
And so am I
I’ve seen it all
Old lovers die
Pretty Annie, fix my tie
