Reno
I hear you shot a man in Reno
Just to watch him die
I just want to know Johnny
Why did you do it, why?Was it your broken heart?
Was it the drugs and alcohol?
Was it writer’s block?
That caused so big a fallI wear my sackcloth
And lash myself to atone
I am holier than thou
Did you feel my first stoneThere’s an empty space
In the middle of my soul
That I fill by finding
A superior punitive roleJohnny, you make me forget
All the sins in my life
By helping me stand tall
On the pillar of your strife
