Daly City Train

歌詞

He was an artist and a writer And a poet and a friend In a man's life he will take a fall But how low he goes, it just depends He's shooting dope in the mens' room At the station Daly City Train Have you ever seen an angel, well I know I have You see, they stay here for a while, then they fly away Jackyl had a beer in his hand last time I seen him When he rolled the dice, you know, he never thought twice Never thought twice about being here Some grow up and some grow old But what about the kid who never learned the rules Spent all these years on this earth When you look back it's just a flicker of time Jackyl was one of the ones that perished Yeah, he was one of the ones that was already saved Through all this evil and wreckage, yeah He maintained a sense of himself Jackyl had a beer in his hand last time I seen him When he rolled the dice, you know, he never thought twice Never thought twice about being here Some men are in prison although they walk the streets at night Other men who got the lockdown are free as a bird in flight How about the hour in the system that ended In a one-way line, our measures could not stand it Jackyl had a beer in his hand last time I seen him When he rolled the dice, you know, he never thought twice Never thought twice about being here
