    Lyrics
    music and lyrics by David Hochman and Tristan Kromer

    Get me a glass of whiskey
    and get that Christian boy a gin
    Just tilt back my tombstone
    and pour that whiskey in

    I was riding out of town
    with a bullet in my back
    I saw a struggling poet
    turned ban dito cross the tracks

    He said "Stick ‘em up my friend
    I will be takin’ your gold
    I must take your woman too
    might as well take your soul"

    I feel so alone
    I call six feet my home
    But I got my backbone
    I got my backbone

    With sweat upon my glasses
    An d smoke rings around my eyes
    I see the sun above me
    In it’s clouded disguise

    The poet said "If you’ve got a hard on
    for the little life you’ve got
    You can ride into the desert
    see we’ll how far you go ‘till you rot"

    I feel so alone
    I call six feet m y home
    But I got my backbone
    I got my backbone




    The doctor came too late
    My bones lay on the desert’s plate
    Gave my left over to his dog
    Who buried me deep in the yard
    Up above an oak tree is my tomb
    As I lay staring at the moon

    Get me a glass of whiskey
    and get that Christian boy a gin
    Just tilt back my tombstone
    and pour that whiskey in
