Lyrics:
on the sidewalk
By a cafe where I hope to be workin' soon
Please come to Boston
I said no, boy would you come home to me
[Chorus]
(And) I said, ramblin' boy
city
Is like getting burned without
Feeling the pain
Safety first, cries the sign on the street
Keep to yourself, sing the faces I meet
So far from home
A boy alone, so far from home
Endless rooftops from my window
I felt the gloom of empty rooms
On rainy afternoons
Sometimes in confusion
I felt
It reminds me, that it's not so bad
It's not so bad
Dear Slim, I wrote you, but you still ain't callin'
I left my cell, my pager, and my home
peace!
Silent night! Holy night!
God's Son laughs, o how bright.
Love from your holy lips shines clear,
As the dawn of salvation draws near,
Jesus,
it comin' home to you.
That's the reason why homes are wrecked today by just such rats as you.
The reason why so many good homes is wrecked, by such
peace!
Silent night! Holy night!
God's Son laughs, o how bright.
Love from your holy lips shines clear,
As the dawn of salvation draws near,
Jesus,
guide
You deserve deepest of cover
You belong in that home by and by
You belong among the wildflowers
You belong somewhere close to me
Far away
again
To our old haunts again
Together
Now scatter us all around
Far from the bugle sound
Surrender
Safe in the exclusion zone
Catch me and take me
It reminds me, that it's not so bad
It's not so bad
Dear Slim, I wrote you, but you still ain't callin'
I left my cell, my pager, and my home
That says you've got to fight and die
When the man said surrender
He kept right on a'goin'
He could see his brother Jesus by his side
And they knew
niggas wasn't playin' they got straight to the point
Shot up his mothers house col' smoked the joint
All he left was two brothers by the last name Doobie
far away
I know that pain
So don't you run away like you used to do
Roses in a vase of white
Bloodied by the thorns beside the leaves
That
oh)
By myself it hurts the most (Woah, oh, oh)
No one's here so I just wanna go
Home!
I just wanna go, wanna go home
It's as far as I can go
So
Upon a winding forest road
I met a soldier, far from home
I saw he was my enemy
So I aimed at him and he at me
Prepared was I but loath to shoot
microphone pays
In many ways we were paid in the old days
So far away from the crazies with AKs
And though I been around clowning with the Underground
Dear Slim, I wrote you but you still ain't callin'
I left my cell, my pager, and my home phone at the bottom
I sent two letters back in autumn, you
Brother, I wish you were home
Just tell me you're not alone
Call me back, I'm on a plane
I think I'm somewhere over Spain
I'm in the dark without
the people passing by
But I am alone
And far from home
And nobody knows me
Never heard me say goodbye
Never shall I speak to anyone again
All days are
back home
Will you take the high road
Will you take the low road
Oh brother
You're out on your own
Goodbye
Is this how it's got to be
Call by
and me
Can we even hope to deliver this
We are so far away
As one turns against the other
With a brother against brother
Situation like no other,
I tried to break away from you
From the spics and blacks and the gum you chew
Where the posters are torn by the muggin' gangs
By the faggy park
A child was born to be our Savior
Wise men came from near and far
To see the Jesus in the manger
The pathway lighted by the stars
Someday he'll wake
'Boom Boom' the bass will blast
We was laughing, at all the girls that passed
Conversation, brothers had begin to discuss
(Hey yo, Ra, remember that
