He was only ten years old when his daddy died in prison.
I looked after tommy cause he was my brothers son.
I still recall the final words my brother said to tommy:
Son, my life is over, but yours is just begun.
IF SO……………. I pushed my soul in a deep dark hole and then I followed it in
I watched myself crawlin’ out as I was a-crawlin’ in
I got up so tight I couldn’t unwind
I saw so much I broke my mind
Sorry Lucky, I have been running around like a chicken with my head cut off lately!
Answer:
I just dropped in (to see what condition my condition was in)
Why wait any longer for the world to begin
You can have your cake and eat it too
Why wait any longer for the one you love
When he’s standing in front of you
Ain’t it just like the night to play tricks
when you’re tryin’ to be so quiet?
We sit here stranded, though we’re
all doin’ our best to deny it
And Louise holds a handful of rain,
temptin’ you to defy it
I remember what she said to me
How she swore that it never would end
I remember how she held me oh so tight
Wish I didnt know now what I didnt know then
