[00:04.41]I was born in Rochester
[00:29.17]To a bookmaking man
[00:33.11]And fake cigar shops
[00:35.17]With the games on in the back
[00:39.55]See them coming and going
[00:42.23]Let them ride on thoroughbreds
[00:46.86]Police chief and Tompaw wondering
[00:50.17]what was the spread
[00:56.23]I carried rich mens bag through the brow
[00:59.17]Trying to chase a little white ball
[01:03.22]I learnt that any soft place
[01:05.59]wasn't good for me at all
[01:10.61]Daddy came home fired up
[01:13.17]looking for some sort of reliefs
[01:18.05]He beat the hell out of Timmy,
[01:20.55]Timmy beat the hell out of me
[01:25.11]Yeah I would hop the fence out to
[01:27.74]this government fields
[01:32.99]Run 'til there was nothing more to feel
[01:40.24]Lying there watching planes just disappear
[01:46.86]Knowing one day I 'm gonna fly on out of here
[01:54.67]Well that same police chief came to hawkin my first freshman day
[02:02.61]Put my daddy in handcuffs put his picture on the front page
[02:09.80]To carry one of his suits and all my dignity
[02:17.18]Walk the halls around the court waiting for any punk to set me free
[02:25.68]Yeah I would hop the fence out to this government fields
[02:33.74]Run 'til there was nothing more to feel
[02:40.99]Lying there watching planes just disappear
[02:43.55]Knowing one day I 'm gonna fly on out of here
[02:55.18]Well I got that call to Vietnam just like everyone else
[02:58.99]I knew
[03:02.99]So scared of the hand grenades
[03:05.49]threw them farther than any other troop
[03:10.05]I came home like an iron fist
[03:12.68]and Timmy tried to take my keys
[03:17.49]Ripped open his front pocket
[03:19.43]that was the last time he touched me
[03:26.24]Moved to an island out west up to Breaken Bridge
[03:33.62]Met a mermaid on a glass boat
[03:36.55]and she promised me some kids
[03:40.87]Bought a house in Oregon
[03:43.49]where you could touch both of the walls
[03:48.18]Had a son named Benjamin
[03:50.37]and I was so scared of it all
[04:26.10]Well Benjamin walked in the front room
[04:28.79]where I was cutting up my hash
[04:33.16]Looked into those deep blue eyes wondering
[04:36.60]why I've been so mad
[04:40.54]Flushed the courter pound down
[04:42.42]the drain praying for the mercy to confess
[04:47.68]Trying to rip out that boy
[04:50.30]from Rochester right out from my chest
[04:56.61]We're gonna walk right out into these heavenly fields
[05:00.24]Run like there was no more time to steal
[05:12.05]My three boys in the grace of god I feel
[05:18.36]Knowing one day you're gonna
[05:20.99]take me out of here
[05:25.68]Knowing one day you're gonna
[05:28.05]take me out of here
