Fifty years out on the skids

Watched the ring on the stove turn red
Stared hypnotized into a cup of coffee
Pulled on my boots and made the bed

As the evening sky grew dark
Took a sniff of toncho from his coke can
And headed through Balboa Park

Felt funny bein' a civilian again

I said "There's no smokin' in the store ma'am."
She crossed her legs and then
We made some small talk that's where it should have stopped

Got a job at the rendering plant, it ain't gonna make me rich
