Heads or Tails - Shannon and the Clams

I’m a real live hobo

I lived all my life on the rails

I keep a coin in my pocket

And my only fate is head or tails

I had a wife and a family

I left them on their own

You only do it for yourself

But appreciate what you’re shown

Sometimes I flip the coin

Oh, I flip the coin

Oh, I flip the coin

Yeah, I flip the coin

Do what I want

I had the union pacific heading to Californ-i-a

I have the coin in my pocket and I wanna do just what they say

She said you leave us again for that drink you use as a map

But then I flipped the coin

Oh, I flipped the coin

Oh yeah, I flipped the coin

Yeah, I flipped the coin

Do what I want
