the unforgiven

well, i was down in my old neighborhood, where the wood turned to stone, and the place that i used to live, is now a savings and loan, my friends and i would walk the shadows, we dance in dead end streets, we were the human chain gang, we were destined for defeat, we were, always the unforgiven, always the unfortunate ones, always the unforgiven, someday we gonna face the sun, that's right, jimmy he had a natural gift, the way he handled a glove, and billy he could sing a tune, make you fall in love, and judy made her own clothing, and sally drew a vein, what was not god given, was washed out with the rain, we were, always the unforgiven, always the unfortunate ones, always the unforgiven, someday we gonna face the sun, those poor little rich kids, with their tarnished spoons, they come uptown on friday nights, they'd try to play our tunes, they couldn't steal our thunder, no, they didn't have a chance, we were much too serious, we were moving away too fast, the unforgiven, and daddy, he'd be gone for weeks, but sometimes he come around, and tell me the places he'd been, but never where he was bound, yeah, always the unforgiven, always the unfortunate ones, always the unforgiven, someday we gonna face the sun, the unforgiven, the unforgiven, someday we gonna face the sun, the unforgiven, the unforgiven, always the unfortunate ones, someday we gonna face the sun
