“Shotgun on my shoulder
Where a tote sack oughta be
The thieves are getting bolder
And the feds may be watchin’ me
I gotta quit this eventually
I know the law won’t be forgiving
But that’ll be the choice I made
I used to farm for a living
But now I’m in the growing trade”
Levon Helm, best known for being in The Band, is in the final stages of cancer.
