	Hollis Brown
	He lived on the outside of town
	Hollis Brown
	He lived on the outside of town
	With his wife and five children
	And his cabin fallin’ down

	You looked for work and money
	And you walked a rugged mile
	You looked for work and money
	And you walked a rugged mile
	Your children are so hungry
	That they don’t know how to smile

	Your baby’s eyes look crazy
	They’re a-tuggin’ at your sleeve
	Your baby’s eyes look crazy
	They’re a-tuggin’ at your sleeve
	You walk the floor and wonder why
	With every breath you breathe

	The rats have got your flour
	Bad blood it got your mare
	The rats have got your flour
	Bad blood it got your mare
	If there’s anyone that knows
	Is there anyone that cares?

	You prayed to the Lord above
	Oh please send you a friend
	You prayed to the Lord above
	Oh please send you a friend
	Your empty pockets tell yuh
	That you ain’t a-got no friend

	Your babies are crying louder
	It’s pounding on your brain
	Your babies are crying louder now
	It’s pounding on your brain
	Your wife’s screams are stabbin’ you
	Like the dirty drivin’ rain

	Your grass it is turning black
	There’s no water in your well
	Your grass is turning black
	There’s no water in your well
	You spent your last lone dollar
	On seven shotgun shells

	Way out in the wilderness
	A cold coyote calls
	Way out in the wilderness
	A cold coyote calls
	Your eyes fix on the shotgun
	That’s hangin’ on the wall

	Your brain is a-bleedin’
	And your legs can’t seem to stand
	Your brain is a-bleedin’
	And your legs can’t seem to stand
	Your eyes fix on the shotgun
	That you’re holdin’ in your hand

	There’s seven breezes a-blowin’
	All around the cabin door
	There’s seven breezes a-blowin’
	All around the cabin door
	Seven shots ring out
	Like the ocean’s pounding roar

	There’s seven people dead
	On a South Dakota farm
	There’s seven people dead
	On a South Dakota farm
	Somewhere in the distance
	There’s seven new people born
