lyrics

I knew a girl who wouldn’t stay clean
Twenty five years in a sleepy dream
Daddy just died and mama just left
She was never home and she never slept
Cops all knew her ‘cause she’d been around
The kids gathered up by the old playground
Ink on her fingers by the age of ten
She’d wanna be better every now and then

Living under pressure every day
City State and Town in every way

I met a man by the overpass
Says he was born into lower class
Daddy’s in jail and mama don’t care
All of his cousins had best beware
Cops all know him ‘cause he’s been around
The kids beat him up by the old playground
Ink on his fingers by the age of ten
He’d wanna be better every now and then

I’m a stranger trying to be a friend
I’m in danger trying to pretend

So sharpen up those hooks and lay ‘em down
‘Cause we’re draggin’ that line across the ground

Living under pressure every day
City State and Town in every way

So sharpen up those hooks and lay ‘em down
‘Cause we’re draggin’ that line across the ground

Draggin’ that line across the ground
