Ballad of Jim Jones

I walked from new york and back from l.a.
I lived on a mountain and once by the bay
I bought an apartment and slept in the hay
But there's no place that's softer than (your arms)

Living today is just getting so bad
There's a look on your face
And it says"you've been had!"
You can take all my money
But don't make me mad
Cause there's nobody meaner than (me)

I prayed to buddha, to allah, and jim.
I turned to jesus and stayed there with him
I fell in deep but i learned how to swim
Now there's no one who's cleaner than me or than him
