  • The times they were good, the times they were bad,
    most times it was just in between.
    The hard pill he swallowed was the times that they had,
  • she put on display for all to be seen.
     
    Some find their solace in work or the lord,
  • she was quite content in her dream.
    When his eyes they burned from the bright lime light,
    he found comfort in the bottle of Ol' Jimmy Beam.
  •  
    One day from the depths of his deep darkened hole,
    he reached out for something to feel.
  • She offered back nothin' but lack of respect
    so he left himself out with two barrels of steel.
     
  • She cried in the day, she cried in the night.
    She cried loudest when someone was near.
    Whether crying for him or she cried for herself,
  • the bigger the camera, the bigger the tear.
     
    Most folks agree that she was living a hell
  • and publicly she showed her pain.
    And never once was there a thought for herself,
    and the ever-growing slices of fortune and fame.
  •  
    Now on the coattails of a dead man she'll ride
    on the coattails of a dead man she'll ride.
  • On the coattails of a dead man she'll ride she'll ride,
    on the coattails of a dead man she'll ride she'll ride high.
