Music by Elton JohnLyrics by Bernie TaupinAvailable on the album Madman Across The WaterWe've moved on six miles from where we were yesterdayAnd yesterday is but a long long ways awaySo we'll camp out tonight beneath the bright starlightAnd forget rotten peaches and the places we've stayedI left from the dockland two years ago nowMade my way over on the S.S. MarieAnd I've always had trouble wherever I've settledRotten peaches are all that I seeRotten peaches rotting in the sunSeems I've seen that devil fruit since the world begunMercy I'm a criminal, Jesus I'm the oneRotten peaches rotting in the sunThere ain't no green grass in a U.S. state prisonThere is no one to hold when you're sick for your wifeAnd each day out you'll pick, you'll pick rotten peachesYou'll pick rotten peaches for the rest of your lifeOh I've had me my fill of cocaine and pillsFor I lie in the light of the LordAnd my home is ten thousand, ten thousand miles awayAnd I guess I won't see it no more
