I sold junk bonds in Arizona, until the market ran dry.
Sold used cars in Reno, ‘til a Cadillac died
On Johnny and Vincent, on a dark desert road.
Casino’s vallet said they’re comin’ for blood
With Vincent’s whole crew from the Grand Desert Palms.
So I drove to Los Cruces in the cover of dark.
Chorus:
Just another rough stretch, not the last of its kind.
I just keep on movin’, ‘til the broken dreams heal.
I know that it’s out there, for someone to find,
My own piece of heaven, the last sweetheart deal.
Ran a pawn shop out of Nashville, until the ‘99 sting.
Sold a ‘69 Fender to the Chief of Police.
That guitar, it turns out, she was right hot as hell.
Stolen in Memphis from some fancy hotel.
Spent the Winter with the County ‘til I earned my release.
Went south down through Macon on to Daytona Beach.
Chorus:
Just another rough stretch, not the last of its kind.
I just keep on movin’, ‘til the broken dreams heal.
I know that it’s out there, for someone to find,
My own piece of heaven, the last sweetheart deal.
Lived east of Gainseville selling parcels of land.
Got caught in the middle of a good deal gone bad.
Made a cold call into Richmond to a half deaf old man.
Sold him 5,000 acres I didn’t quite have.
Drove west into Georgia with the traveling show
The Reverend Clark Cleary’s "Tower of Gold."
He cured me of blindness near every third day.
We worked the pan handle clear to Galveston Bay.
‘Til a newsman from Laredo bought that sixth round of gin.
& Sheriff Roy Tucker made put our show to an end.
I told them at the trial I was just plain no good.
The judge had some mercy and did what he could.
Chorus:
Just another rough stretch, not the last of its kind.
I just keep on movin’, ‘til the broken dreams heal.
I know that it’s out there, for someone to find,
My own piece of heaven, the last sweetheart deal.
