lyrics

38 by ‘74

I came back from the war, back in ‘74
I killed 38 men trying to even the score
From what went down there’s an echo around
See the tear in my eye, I didn’t want them to die

You ever kill a man? Henry asked me
Take a swig from the bottle, it’ll help you to see
You ever kill a man? Well you can catch it in his eye
I can hear those men die every night in my dream

In and out of the shelters I’m pushed like a ball
I roll and I fall, could never stop it all
I’m sick and I’m mad at what I could’ve had
So just play me a song and I’ll try to forget

And he said you got to help to get your brother back on his feet
You have to get your sister off of the street
You gotta get ‘em both something warm to eat
You gotta be as friendly to the others that you meet

Gotta be making my rounds, gotta get downtown
Get some visual perspective or just stare at the ground
I’m quick with a line and my wit is still mine
But I’m always on the run from the ghosts in my mind
