Run, Brother Run

RUN, BROTHER RUN

Smokin' on a hill in the parking lot
Jammin' easy down in Mary Fix park
Laughin' in good old school days
So many times who could ever say
Suddenly there was nothing you could do
Lying there was the other half of you
Not a word was said by that satin bed
Like a toast to the demons in your head

Run, brother run
There's no peace when it's done
Run, brother run
And at last you're the only one

Back on home ground, Miami FLA
Working deals that seemed to go your way
Brown bag cruising with that top way down
It went so smooth no bottom could be found
Then came a girl, she was the hungry kind
It wasn't long before she held your mind
So many reasons when you said, I do
And as she walked away she took the rest of you

Run, brother run
There's no peace when it's done
Run, brother run
And at last you're the only one

A kind of freedom came with family dues
Taking care of them, those lonesome blues
You saw no blame in what you had to do
But each night the silence talked to you

Bouncing cheques across the boulevard
Moving fast and landing too hard
And all the while it was looking straight at you
One last drink and the bottle killed you too

Run, brother run
There's no peace when it's done
Run, brother run
And at last you're the only one
