Story behind the song
I had been letting somebody stay with me while they were down on their luck. Well, they decided to bolt one night while I was at a gig and they stole half my studio gear and sold it on their way out of town. I chased 'em down through two states before I lost the trail, but they'll surface.
Lyrics
Somebody ripped me off and ran into the night And it pissed me off 'cause it's just not right He'd better be running scared I would follow him anywhere Somebody ripped me off and it cuts like a knife (Chorus) I wonder where he is tonight Is he feeling safe is he sleeping alright How long did the money last How long before he crosses my path Did you ever bust your ass work hard and sweat To get yourself something that you just had to get Before you know it, it's all gone Somebody took it and got it pawned I hear in Hell that's how they pay their rent I wonder where he is tonight Is he feeling safe is he sleeping alright How long did the money last How long before he crosses my path Did you ever look in your pocket and find a hand And it's attached to a dishonest man He'd better be running scared I would follow him anywhere I wanna put an end to a dishonest man I wonder where he is tonight Is he feeling safe is he sleeping alright How long did the money last How long before he crosses my path I wanna put an end to a dishonest man
