Down On These Badlands Songtext / Lyric

"Alone and forsaken" . . .
No longer heart breakin'
bAandoned by the side
Of the road
Dust lying and waiting
For the sheriff's men
To find her
So her whole story
Can be told
And its been raining
All of the day here
But this is the desert
And it never rains
This much unless
The heavens themselves
Can't keep their
Tears from falling
Down on these badlands
. . . Trying to wash the shame
Away
Down on these badlands
Where its hard to understand
Why man can't control
His own blood
Or his own hand
Down on these badlands
Where another lies dead . . . and
Her picture will be all
That's left
From the whole story told
