Someone saw somethin' just east of here
I came up the western pier
There's one thing you should know about
Christ is watchin' me right now
Someone saw somethin' and they shot it down
I spent seven months in another town
At night, I'd walk down on the beach
One night I saw them watchin' me
They rolled up, they put the cuffs on
And they drove me deep into the valley
The just judge looked me over and said, "I'm sorry
You don't have to keep runnin'
You best be leaving"
You can't take away all the parts of you
That make you do the things you do
The girls still live inside my heart
Keep coming up the boulevard
They roll up, they pledge their lovin'
Then they drive you halfway to a breakdown
The just judge looked me over and said, "I'm sorry
Love's been such a letdown
Let's proceed with the shakedown"
Jesus is a judge, and He's kind and He's just
Forgives us for our avarice and lust
I don't even know what's east of here
I came up the western pier
