Sadr City Blues, there is no excuse |
|
Write your name down |
|
Get your name crossed out |
|
You got to shine on, shine on |
|
Sitting in the back on your very own |
|
This ain't jack, or ain't wack |
|
This is real life |
|
You got to shine on, shine on |
|
You can't wait |
|
For the sun to be born |
|
To hold you, keep you warm |
|
The desert has its ice storm |
|
It's too late |
|
For the flowers to arrive |
|
On the road of the cross and knives |
|
When you're looking for just war |
|
You got to shine, shine, shine, shine on |
|
To make it through the Sadr City blues |
|
You got to shine, shine, shine, shine on |
|
To make it through the Sadr City blues |
|
Oh, the work is never done burying your son |
|
The television lights are lives |
|
You got to shine on |
|
Shine on |
|
Sitting in the back on your very own |
|
You get divorced over the telephone |
|
You got to shine on |
|
Shine on |
|
You can't wait |
|
For the sun to be born |
|
To hold, to keep you warm |
|
The desert has its ice storm |
|
