lyrics

Well there's so many cities and so many towns
How am I supposed to pick one to settle down
And it's funny how drinking in an unnamed bar
Is the only way to get closer to my heart
So I'm riding for the rhine

Well there's so many women and so many loves
How am I supposed to know when I've had enough
I'm an old man roaming around the wold
Got enough weapons on me to kill a girl

So I'm riding for rhine
Cause a dead man fits the crime
I'm in love with the idea of being in love
A shovel and a bag of lye

I've been racking my brain trying to cure the itch
I can't stop shaking and I got a twitch
I'm an old explorer in a modern home
I'm a black cloak ninja with a cellular phone

And I will haunt the ground
Upon which I have traveled on my own
Driven by the promise I made to you
That will never come...
