Gary Indiana Blues Songtext / Lyric

Turning like a hurricane

Sleep inside this junkyard train

It's cold and I'm loosing my covers

She won't take me any further south

Than Gary Indiana blues



I never learned the easy out

Cracklin' chain and silver spoon

I shot a man for stealing food

He got caught with his gun on the table






Mother quit your cryin' now

Think of the sisters and brothers

Who never learned the easy out



Dancing to the midnight moon

A snowflake in my whisky too

Hear a knock on the door

And some screaming



The eviction man is in town

Here's to the sisters and brothers

Who never learned the easy out
