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