[verse 1]
hollis brown, he lived on the outside of town
hollis brown, he lived on the outside of town
with his wife, his five children, and his cabin broken down

[verse 2]
he looked for work and money, and he walked a ragged mile
he looked for work and money, and he walked a ragged mile
but your children are so hungry that they don’t know how to smile

[verse 3]
the rats have got your flour, bad blood it got your mare
the rats have got your flour, bad blood it got your mare
is there anyone that knows, is there anyone that cares

[verse 4]
you pray to the lord above, oh please send you a friend
you pray to the lord above, oh please send you a friend
your empty pockets tell ya that you ain’t got no friends

[verse 5]
your babies’ eyes look crazy, they’re a+tuggin’ at your sleeve
your babies’ eyes look crazy, they’re a+tuggin’ at your sleeve
you walk the floor, you wonder why with every breath you breathe

[verse 6]
your grass is turnin’ black, there’s no water in your well
your grass is turnin’ black, there’s no water in your well
you spent your lone last dollar on seven shotgun sh+lls
[verse 7]
and away out in the wilderness, a lone coyote calls
away out in the wilderness, a lone coyote calls
your eyes fix on the shotgun that’s a+hangin’ on the wall

[verse 8]
and your brain is a+bleedin’ and your legs can’t seem to stand
your brain is a+bleedin’ and your legs can’t seem to stand
your eyes fix on the shotgun that you’re holdin’ in your hand

[verse 9]
there’s seven breezes blowin’ all around the cabin door
there’s seven breezes blowin’ all around the cabin door
seven shots rang out like the ocean’s poundin’ roar

[verse 10]
there’s seven people dead on a south dakota farm
there’s seven people dead on a south dakota farm
somewheres in the distance there’s seven new people born
