Pinball Machine - The Fall[00:00:00]
Written by:Lonnie Irving[00:00:01]
I'm an old road hog[00:00:09]
I drove a big truck[00:00:11]
Shot the pinball machine[00:00:13]
But it brought me bad luck[00:00:15]
If oceans was whiskey[00:00:23]
And I was a dove[00:00:25]
I'd dive into it[00:00:27]
And never come up[00:00:29]
I wish they'd outlaw them old pinball machines[00:00:32]
Many weeks they have caused me to live on sardines[00:00:37]
Last time I called my wife on the phone[00:00:47]
The first thing she said was John can you come home[00:00:52]
I got a lot of lodgers and they've got to go[00:00:56]
I said I'll see you when I get back[00:01:01]
From the depot[00:01:04]
She said John you know[00:01:11]
I love you[00:01:12]
I wish you wouldn't go[00:01:13]
Send your babies some money[00:01:15]
They're hungry and cold[00:01:18]
The last thing she said and then she hung up[00:01:23]
Was john you[00:01:26]
Gave up my loving to drive an old truck[00:01:27]
I made my trip[00:01:40]
Up to the depot[00:01:42]
I was gone two months[00:01:45]
'cause I shot up my dough[00:01:47]
When I got home my family was gone[00:01:49]
The best friend I had rung my telephone[00:01:54]
He said John I guess you wonder 'bout your babies and wife[00:02:03]
Pneumonia got your babies and your wife took her life[00:02:08]
I've lost all my friends can't sleep for bad dreams[00:02:15]
I dream about a old truck[00:02:20]
And a pinball machine[00:02:23]
I never will forget[00:02:29]
The last words[00:02:30]
That old man said[00:02:32]
Oh lord[00:02:33]
If I could live my life over[00:02:34]
And then he fell dead[00:02:37]
The victim of an old truck[00:02:38]
He was a clean cut young man[00:02:40]
At the age of nineteen[00:02:42]
But now he's in his grave[00:02:44]
The victim of an old truck[00:02:45]
And a pinball[00:02:47]
Machine[00:02:49]
