[Verse 1]
A
Davey broke the law again
A
Heard this time he's going to the pen
A
Guess I didn't need my lunch
A
'Cause I was going to miss him a whole bunch
A
Maybe he was out of line
A
But he was still a pretty close friend of mine
A
Maybe he had hurt me bad
A E
But a brother is a brother and that is that
[Verse 2]
A
Mom's in a mood this week
A
'Cause she thinks that her family is going crazy
A
Guess it started with the baby
A
She went in for a hug, then it bit her on the cheek
A
That was pretty funny to me
A
But I guess I should have more sympathy
I never raised a kid
A E
But I bet I'd do a good job if I did
[Verse 3]
A
Had a dream about a promised land
A
Walkin' 'round with a big gun in my hand
A
And when I look you in the eye
A
You're gonna tell me that you love me and hold me tight
'Cause you know that I have no fear
A
Ain't gonna walk into the river and disappear
I'm gonna be a powerful man
A E
Red blood running down the broken sand
A
I couldn't tell you
E
What it means to me
