Well they call me William the Pleaser I sold opium, fireworks and lead Now I'm telling my troubles to strangers When the shadows get long I be deadNow her hair was as black as a bucket of tar Her skin as white as a cuttlefish bone I left Texas to follow Lucinda Now I'll never see heaven or homeI made a wish on a sliver of moonlight A sly grin and a bowl full of stars like a kid who captures a firefly And leaves it only to die in a jarAs I kick at the clouds at my hanging As I swing out over the crowd I will search every face for Lucinda's And she'll go off with me down to hellI tought I'd broke loose of Lucinda Rain returned and so did the wind I cast this burden on the God that's within me And I'll leave this old world and go freeThe devil dances inside empty pockets But she didn't want money or pearls Boy that wasn't enough for Lucinda She wasn't that kind of girlNow I've fallen from grace for Lucinda Who'd ever tought that hell would be so cold? I did well for an old tin can sailor But she wanted the bell in my soulI've spoken to God on the mountain And I swam in the irish sea I ate fire and drank from the Gange I beg them all for mercy for meI tought I'd broke loose of Lucinda Rain returned and so did the wind I was standing outside the white house And man I was afraid to go inI heard someone pull the trigger Her breast heaved in the moonlight again There was a smear of gold in the window And then I was the jewel of her sinThey call me William the Pleaser I sold opium, fireworks and lead Now I'm telling my troubles to strangers When the shadows get long I be deadNow her hair was as black as a bucket of tar Her skin as white as a cuttlefish bone I left Texas to follow Lucinda I know I'll never see heaven or home No I'll never see heaven or home No I'll never never see heaven or home
