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