JPT from Saudade by Sonny Rocka

We were born on the east side
In the dark like a B-Side
Every story had a co-sign
Till now

Heavy head born to follow
Tough pill born to swallow
Cycle spin to tomorrow
Till now

Blood and Bones
I promise to clean this mess before I go
Mom and Dad I’ll carry on your load
I tried hard to keep Johnny close
But now he’s heading home
All alone

Mother gone at 49
Daddy lost on a greyhound line
Johnny talked about suicide
Till now

kicked and clawed everyday
Fought himself along the way
The Digging out was underway
Till now

Blood and bones
I’d wish you dead to make the worry go
Mom and Dad I’ll bury what I know
I tried hard to keep Johnny close
But now he’s heading home
