Jersey - Old Bones And Dirty Coffins Lyrics
A good job, good homeBut you chose the streets as a place to goTaking on the uniform to wear loud and proudBut underneath it all, a teenage suburban girlWith her parents and a brother and a sister that miss herAnd they can't figure out why she's not listening[Chorus]And she's sleeping 6 feet deep tonightSleeping...She's got old bones and dirty coffinsThey can't be better than broken homesLonely fossil lying in the coldUnconditional love and protection from the coldIt all came down to one long cruel nightShe took but one shot to the veinAnd time stood still she'll never be the sameAnd now she realizes the streets aren't fun and games[Chorus]Feel the chill as time stood stillThe rain came and the angels sangI watched the people come and goThe black cars lined row by rowAnd Jenny's parents are left to weepWhile her spirit sleeps on the concrete[Chorus]And it's do or die, and death or gloryWhen choose the streets stricken by the devils and the cheatsAnd they'll take your soul and turn you inside out
