The Backyard Of My Life

Rain man And The Valley Cats


Rain man was the bounty hunter
On a crooked trail to find the valley cats
They broke out of the jail
Armed only with baseball bats
Wolf man was the leader laughing
In the face of the law
He committed the crime of the century
Many moons before
He turns to tell the other three cool cats
Were gonna have some fun tonight
Were gonna drink and steal and fight
Were gonna burn this city down
Ashes to ashes dust to dust
We'll put it six feet underground

Rain man followed the clues high and low
Through the windy desert past the ice and snow
To interview a witness called quin the Eskimo
Who testified they had been and gone
Robbed a bank and killed someone
Just to watch them die
To see somebody suffer to see somebody cry
There was blood on the wolf mans hands
But his conscience was clear
As he pulled out a pocket knife
Half the world away to take another life
Rain man was running out of time

Meanwhile wolf man was determined to blow up
The world in a million different ways
To bring about Armageddon and the end of days
With a gun to holly's head she was taken hostage
And locked up in a cage
To be torchered by the valley cats
T take the wolf mans rage

Rain man received a tip off that the deal
Would go down on the docks
Next to the old lighthouse shining on the rocks
He told them to surrender or it would go down to the wire
When there was a mighty explosion an unstoppable fire
The valley cats were surrounded there was no escape
He had there confessions on a secret tape
Wolf man was missing he vanished without a trace
Crawled free from the wreckage with a scar on his face
He lives to die another day

Fifteen years later on a cold November night
Wolf man was waiting with a lady dressed in white
With murder on his mind
When out of the shadows stepped rain man
Just in the nick of time
He told him to freeze put your hands on your head
But he tried to reach for a weapon
Now the wolf mans dead
Rain man retired and moved out to LA
Where he still writes to holly
Every other day
