Jimmy Rae was born and raised to be
|
The son of pride and family respect
|
And Jimmy Rae swore he'd one day see
|
The other side of his own neglect
|
So Jimmy Rae left home at seventeen
|
And vowed he would never look back
|
He passed his old man on the floor
|
Empty bottle, his face in the crack
|
And it's so sad to see that no one hears the call
|
And it's so hard to be alone trapped against the wall
|
Where nobody gives a damn
|
The sacrificial lamb
|
The message is clear
|
It's a tragedy to see you slip away
|
Jimmy Rae
|
Jimmy Rae dreamed he'd someday be
|
A lucky child of significance
|
And shall we say it was destiny
|
He'd be a victim of indifference
|
So Jimmy Rae fell down to his knees
|
And confessed to a higher God
|
'O naked truth you're a travesty
|
Your creation's a fraud
|
'O and it's so sad to see that no one hears the call
|
And it's so hard to be alone trapped against the wall
|
Where nobody gives a damn
|
The sacrificial lamb
|
The message is clear
|
It's a tragedy to see you slip away
|
Jimmy Rae
|
Oh no no
|
And it's so sad to see that no one hears the call
|
And it's so hard to be alone trapped against the wall
|
Whoa where nobody gives a damn
|
The sacrificial lamb
|
The message is clear
|
It's a tragedy to see you slip away
|
Jimmy Rae
|
Jimmy Rae no no no
|
Oh no
|
It's so sad to see you slip away
|
It's so sad to see you slip away
|
Jimmy Rae
|
Jimmy Rae
|
Jimmy Rae
|
Do you hear me Jimmy Rae?
|
Do you hear me Jimmy Rae
