Jimmy Tick Tock
Jimmy he left school at 15
Got a job in a local factory
They sold it on and moved the money down south
He's pouring pints and he's living hand to mouth
He bangs the drums on a weekend
He plays for beers but one day he'll pay the rent
Legends never die my friend
It's only the sad songs that make me happy
And black is the only colour to carry the weight of it all
I got a trade like they always told me
Work dried up and my wife divorced me
I've watched four kids on a broken train track
If you decide to live baby I've got your back
On my 21st birthday I stood in the back of the court
Watched my brother get two years for
shifting ounces trying to pay the child support
Got a job in a local factory
They sold it on and moved the money down south
He's pouring pints and he's living hand to mouth
He bangs the drums on a weekend
He plays for beers but one day he'll pay the rent
Legends never die my friend
It's only the sad songs that make me happy
And black is the only colour to carry the weight of it all
I got a trade like they always told me
Work dried up and my wife divorced me
I've watched four kids on a broken train track
If you decide to live baby I've got your back
On my 21st birthday I stood in the back of the court
Watched my brother get two years for
shifting ounces trying to pay the child support
