Chorus: Oh, I was a Supermarket fool. I was a motor bank stool-pidgeon, robbin' my hometown. I thought I lost my blues, yes I thought I paid my dues. I thought I'd found a life to suit my style. But here I sit old Spider John the robber-man. Long, tall, and handsome. Yes, old Spider John with a loaded hand, takin' ransom.
Long, tall and handsome. Yes, ol' Spider John with the loaded hand. Taking ransom. Then one day I met Diamond Lil. She was the sweetest thing, I declare, That the summer breeze ever blown my way. But, lady, she had no idea my illustrious occupation. She thought I was a saint, not a sinner gone astray.

I'm on my way to nowhere, I been runnin' from my past. Runnin' from the things I used to be. Now, I know my words sound strange to you. But if you'll wait till my song is sung and my story's told.

I'm on my way to nowhere. I been runnin' from my past. Runnin' from the things I used to be. Now I know my words sound strange to you. But if you'll wait till my song is sung and my story's told. You might come to understand. Why I'm old and bent and devil's been runnin' out of time. When I long ago held a royal flush in my hand.
