Lyrics

Right around December
When the hard winds blow
I think of the stranger
Drifted in with the snow
He didn?t stay long
But when he looked my way
Sent a cold chill through me
I can feel today

He said, ?I?m a wanderer, I?m a soul-less soul
I?m a rolling stone
Look in my eyes
Ain?t nobody home?

?I could blame it on my Daddy
Left me when I was three
Or say it was my Mama
But it?s really just me
In my lifetime
I?ve been tempted to kill
I haven?t yet
But I probably will?

He died at the hands
Of a sheriff I know
Said, ?We had to take him down
Shot a kid in Laredo
Now killers and dead men
I?ve seen plenty of those
But his eyes were open
And I wish they?d been closed?
