lyrics

They say it was a homicide that laid poor Robbie in the snow
Me, I think it was a suicide but what the hell do I know
He came into town in his beat up truck, March 23rd
Apparently he went out like a light and no one heard a word

Robbie was born July 19th, 1962
His parents always told him that they had him cause there was nothing better to do
He came from a small town East of Parrsboro
He said if you like doing nothing at all then that's the place to go

You know I saw round here last week outside the record store
I knew he had something on his mind as soon as he walked out the door
He said, “I don't care what the punks say. Rock and roll will always be king.
But man, that shit on the radio, it don't mean a thing”

Well his girlfriend left him like a piece of trash on the road
And he had to walk home all night by himself in the cold
The cops they said it was Friday when he went down
Round midnight
As Robbie laid dead under Gottingen street lamps shining bright

They say it was a homicide
That laid young Robbie in the ground
Me I still think it was a suicide
But there was no one around
