Sad Eyed Son

WHEN YOU WOKE UP AND I COULD NOT BE FOUND

YOU WOKE UP I WAS OUT AND AROUND

YOU KNOW I TOOK MY BIKE OUT TO THE EDGE OF OUR PLACE

RODE IT OFF A LEDGE AND NEARLY BROKE FACE

CRACKED MY ARM IN 2 PLACES, BROKE MY NOSE NOW WHAT A FACE YOU SEE

WHAT A FACE YOU SEE

EVERYBODY’S GOT A STORY TO TELL

I’M NO DIFFERENT BOY CAN\'T YA TELL

I’M A SAD EYED SON WITH ROCKS IN MY POCKET

WAITING FOR THE MOMENT

I COULD THROW EM LIKE A ROCKET…. WELL I

I THREW DOWN UPON THAT HORNETS NEST

I FELT POISON SINKIN IN MY CHEST

CHORUS: IT’S A REAL BAD WAY TO MAKE YOUR MAMA CRY MERCY

IT’S A REAL BAD WAY TO MAKE YOUR DADDY HOLLA HURRY

ON A SAD EYED SON WHO SAID NOTHIN CAN BE DONE

I KNOW THE PAST IS OVER WHILE THE FUTURE’S COME AND GONE

AM I GOOD AS I COULD GET AM I LOW AS I COULD GO

EVERBODYS TALKIN DON’T CHA DON’T CHA DON’T CHA KNOW

YOU SAY NOBODY’S GOT IT QUITE LIKE ME

CAN’T HEAR YA BITCHIN\' WHILE YOUR HANGIN\' FROM A TREE

I’LL LIGHT A FIRE TO YOUR PRETTY RED HAIR

AM I A MAN NOW ON BEHALF OF YOUR DESPAIR

  

CHORUS

It’s a real bad way...
