Capsized Songtext
von Richmond Fontaine

I broke your back, so I′ll break mine
Twice the same
Ended up in some back room
Where no one knew my name

I drifted and I drifted
Ended up in Spokane
In a one room place above a bar
Called "The Grand"

Oh, I never called my parents
I called my brother drunk, too many times
Until he finally wouldn't answer his phone
Worried and uncertain I ran myself down
Ended up selling most of my things


I drifted and I drifted
Ended up in Wyoming
I got so broke, I sold my car

I broke your back so I′ll break mine
50 times the same
Hope your holding up alright
You've forgotten my name

From Walla Walla to Stockton
From Yuma to Bullhead City
I get by alright

But I will cut every tie that gets close to me
I'll pay for my mistakes
I′ll pay for them, you′ll see

The only back I break is mine
A hundred ways and a hundred times
For all the nights I was drunk
Left you Stranded and Capsized
Capsized
