I was on the run I'm a changed man now but when I had a gun Shit got done baby I was dangerous They got posters of me hanging at the ADX, hon I'm a bastard son If they speak ill of me, don't be sad There's some truth to it, ain't that right I made my mark, I had my fun Left a pile of dead bodies in the sun I used to shoot em up on the avenue I still recall Sixteen years young she was the first one Underneath the midnight sun I cut her throat Put some makeup on her face, took some pictures And headed on home baby But that was then, honey, now I've changed I've grown fond of my ball and chain I made my mark, I had my fun Left a pile of dead bodies in the sun I used to shoot em up on the avenue Then I met you I hear the cries There's a crowd outside saying throw him to the wolfs Or hang him high Will you marry me Come visit next week we'll get married in the canteen Thursday night Nine'o clock, honey, how's that sound I'll ask the warden for candle lights I made my mark, I had my fun Left a pile of dead bodies in the sun I used to shoot em up on the avenue Then I met you

The wedding was charming, if a little gauche There's only so far new money goes They picked out a home and called it "Holiday House" Their parties were tasteful, if a little loud The doctor had told him to settle down It must have been her fault his heart gave out And they said "There goes the last great American dynasty" "Who knows if she never showed up, what could've been" "There goes the maddest woman this town has ever seen" "She had a marvelous time ruinin' everything" Rebekah gave up on the Rhode Island set, forever Flew in all her Bitch Pack friends from the city Filled the pool with champagne and swam with the big names And blew through the money on the boys and the ballet And losin' on card game bets with Dalí And they said "There goes the last great American dynasty" "Who knows if she never showed up, what could've been" "There goes the most shameless woman this town has ever seen" "She had a marvelous time ruinin' everything" They say she was seen on occasion Pacing the rocks, staring out at the midnight sea And in a feud with her neighbor She stole his dog and dyed it key lime green 50 years is a long time Holiday House sat quietly on that beach Free of women with madness, their men and bad habits And then it was bought by me Who knows if I never showed up what could've been There goes the loudest woman this town has ever seen I had a marvelous time ruinin' everything I had a marvelous time ruinin' everything A marvelous time ruinin' everything A marvelous time I had a marvelous time
