He happened upon my late night scene
He rode into town about 12: 15
In a '69 overpainted Emerald Green
Smelling like weed and Alf Fouchine
'Said that he was looking for this kid, Eugene
Who lived on the corner of Fifth and Macy
Gene was messin' 'round with his wife, Doreen
Under the kicked-in door he heard him scream
He said
Ive got so much trouble on my mind
That I even scare myself sometimes
I make a threat, my conscious sweats,
My mind gets set and Im
gone
Somebody better hold me back
Somebody better hold me back
Slap my face and get me back on track
I'll pull my pin
I won't be ashamed to sin
If I don't hold my fire
hold my fire
It happened so fast,
But before I knew
he pulled a cold .45 from the heel of his shoe
I heard two shots and Gene caught one
Then he was gone just as quick as he'd come
Ive got so much trouble on my mind
That I even scare myself sometimes
I make a threat, my conscious sweats,
My mind gets set and Im
gone
Somebody better hold me back
Somebody better hold me back
Slap my face and get me back on track
I'll pull my pin
I won't be ashamed to sin
If I don't hold my fire
I don't hold my fire
I've got so much trouble on my mind
That I even scare myself sometimes
I make a threat, my conscious sweats,
My mind gets set and I'm gone
I'm gone
I'm gone
I'm gone, I'm too far gone
Somebody better hold me back
Somebody better hold me back
Slap my face and get me back on track
I will pull this pin
I won't be ashamed to sin
If I don't hold my fire
Hold my fire
