Gangster Blues - JERRY'S SOUND ROOM
I was raised in the alleys where the lamplight dies
Where the truth comes cheap and the wrong man lies
Every scar on my knuckles got a story it told
Most of them dirty, all of them old
I got gravel in my blood and smoke in my chest
A lifetime of running from what I confessed
If the streets had a Bible, I'd be writing the proof
Every sin I committed had a corner of truth
I ain't looking for mercy
Never cared for the rules
But the night keeps singing these old outlaw blues
Cause I've been walking through the fire with no one to trust
Every dream that I buried turned right into dust
If the world wants a sinner, then a sinner I'll choose
But I bleed like a man with these gangster blues
Gravel in my blood
And these gangster blues
I learned young that loyalty cuts like steel
And the friends you keep close has got a hunger they conceal
Lost a brother to a deal, lost a love to the night
And the whiskey just reminds me what I failed to fight
But I stand like a shadow that forgot how to fade
With a soul full of debts that can't be repaid
If the devil wants payment, he can get in line
I've been spending my life trying to outrun mine
I ain't asking for shelter
Never begged for a truce
I just walk with the rhythm of these gangster blues
Cause I've been walking through the fire with no one to trust
Every dream that I buried turned right into dust
If the world wants a sinner, then a sinner I'll choose
But I bleed like a man with these gangster blues
Gravel in my blood
And these gangster blues
If the law's still watching, he knows my name
Knows every street that called me into who I became
And if judgment is coming, then let it be soon
Cause I'm tired of fighting
With the ghost of the moon
I've been walking through the fire with the scars I refuse
Carrying every promise this hard life abusing
If this world wants a sinner, then a sinner I'll choose
But I'll die like a man with these gangster blues
Gravel in my blood
And these gangster blues
