The Finest Kind

I've been dumped, I've been sore
 Hard to get and then I got what for
 I bought the ring but we fell apart
 She bent my mind, she broke my heart
 With one love letter, the finest of the, 'Dear John' kind
 I picked my bones on every stage
 When singing songs was all the rage
 I sold my back when I needed cash
 I lost my car when they found my stash
 Cuffed and collared by the governments finest kind
 Cruel winds are always blowing colder
 And a hard rain is never far behind
 So come on darlin', rest your head upon the shoulder
 Of the finest kind, the finest kind
 The finest of the finest kind
 I'm self afflicted, life addicted
 I paid my money but I lost my ticket
 I rolled the stones and I walked the blues
 I stretched my stride, I trimmed my fuse
 When I went running with the finest of the traveling kind
 Cruel winds are always blowing colder
 And a hard rain is never far behind
 Come on darlin', rest your head upon the shoulder
 Of the finest kind, the finest kind
 The finest of the finest kind
