Will all your money Buy you forgiveness Keep you from sickness Or keep you from cold?
Will all your money Keep you from madness Keep you from sadness When you're down in the hole?
'Cause you'll be down in the gutter You'll be bumming for cigarettes Bumming for nylons In the American Zone
You'll be down in the hole Yeah, down in the hole No escape from trouble Nowhere to go
Down in the gutter Begging for cigarettes Begging forgiveness All that you know
Down in the hole After digging the trenches Looking for cover and finding out there ain't nowhere nowhere to go Nowhere nowhere nowhere to go
None of your money Will buy you forgiveness None of your jewelry None of your gold
Your black market cigarettes Your American night-clubs Ah, they've got nowhere left
Something for nothing All of your friends gone Something for nothing That's all that you know There's something down in the hole Down down down in the hole There's something down down down down in the hole
