[00:10.15] Becky Johnson bought the farm
[00:12.54] Put a needle in her arm
[00:15.02] That's the way that it goes
[00:17.67] That's the way
[00:20.38] And her brother laid her down
[00:22.76] In the cold Kentucky ground
[00:25.31] That's the way that it goes
[00:27.99] That's the way
[00:30.81] That's the way that it goes
[00:35.35] Everybody's buying little baby clothes
[00:40.88] That's the way that it ends
[00:46.20] Though there was a time when she and I were friends
[00:54.42] Well, Miranda ran away
[00:56.42] Took her cat and left LA
[00:58.86] That's the way that it goes
[01:01.30] That's the way
[01:03.99] She was busted, broke and flat
[01:06.43] Had to sell that pussy cat
[01:08.97] That's the way that it goes
[01:11.66] That's the way
[01:14.35] That's the way that it goes
[01:19.38] Everybody's buying little baby clothes
[01:24.42] That's the way that it ends
[01:29.39] Though there was a time when he and I were friends
[01:40.11] See the brightest ones of all
[01:42.76] Early in October fall
[01:45.39] That's the way that it goes
[01:47.78] That's the way
[01:50.83] While the dark ones go to bed
[01:52.88] With good whiskey in their head
[01:55.26] That's the way that it goes
[01:57.75] That's the way
[02:12.91] Now Billy Joe's back in the tank
[02:15.80] You tell Russo, I'll tell Frank
[02:18.14] That's the way that it goes
[02:20.48] That's the way
[02:23.58] Did he throw her down a well?
[02:25.87] Did she leave him for that swell?
[02:28.45] That's the way that it goes
[02:30.54] That's the way
[02:33.49] That's the way that it goes
[02:37.92] Everybody's buying little baby clothes
[02:43.70] That's the way that it ends
[02:48.94] Though there was a time when all of us were friends
[02:56.90] When you lay me down to rest
[02:58.89] Leave a pistol in my vest
[03:01.93] That's the way that it goes
[03:03.97] That's the way
[03:07.06] Do you miss my gentle touch?
[03:09.30] Did I hurt you very much?
[03:11.59] That's the way that it goes
[03:14.29] That's the way
[03:47.49] That's the way that it goes
[03:52.43] Everybody's buying little baby clothes
[03:56.85] That's the way that it ends
[04:02.69] Though there was a time when you and I were friends
