Description
There's a hole in my bed
The walls need paint
The church is next door
But I ain't no saint

It's hotter than places
Where the devil won't go
The mine's runnin' dry
And morale is low

Rode into town
On a stop to the coast
Buy they got me trapped
'tween the belly and the roast

Three shot dead
In the night while I slept
Men and their guns
Think their whore can be kept

If I just gotta break
I'd run like hell
And never look back
On the story no one tells

Bodie, CA

High Sierra gold mine town that went from boom to bust. Hookin', murder and raising a family somehow were thrown together with the promise of riches...or at least a decent wage for a hard day's labor.
