Oogle Satire

lyrics

hey now purty mama its okay to cry
everybody knows everybodys born to die
why not spend our time getting high and feelin fine?
hey pretty mama you know its okay to cry
oh sweet darlin why you gotta complain?
outside this liquor store we’ll spend our days
askin for spare change, ridin midnight trains
oh sweet darlin aint no reason to complain

railroad spike, fixgear bike, throwin up and fallin down
face tattoos, left eye bruised, i think ive seen him around
overalls, alcohol patched bibs, dirty rigs
gettin a bit down on the dirty kids im on the next train outta town

yer mama tried to buy you a new pair of shoes
instead you spent the money all on booze
gut rot, hot shot, blood clot dirty sox
did this life you chose or were you born to lose?

road kids living wild and ridin hard
stowin away on intermodal cars
nothin can be done but to wait til morning comes
when the sun comes chasin way the coldest stars

I know a man who works in the knoxville yard
he can stow me away on an intermodal car
onto the shenandoah gorge it will roll it will roar
beneath the moon, atop the iron ore

high security yards, doublestack cars, they’re pickin apart your string
passed out drunk, shoulda rode junk, you dont notice a thing
reckless kid never learned your shit, but yer makin it hard for the ones that did
leavin me with a bad taste in my mouth, are you blowin up or hoppin out?

Hey know theres a lesson to be learned
listen close kid and dont get burned
dont be seen and dont be heard and lay off that 211
dont go chasing a train around that ol curve
with yer vision blurred
