Young girl turn the corner with her clerk dress on, that girl was my sister Just got off the night shift at Penningtons Place, just wanna go home and get some sleep Boys grab her by the waist with their caffeine eyes, their hands all figdet and 'lectric I picked up a brick from my papa's front yard and threw it at the tallest boy's face Well blood was streaming like a well that sprung, I couldn't believe what I had just done Well the other boys ran and this one stayed on the ground and he would never move again Old Saint John on death row, he's just waiting for a pardon Old Saint John on death row, he's just waiting for a pardon All us boys on death row, we just waiting for a pardon All us boys on death row Don't know this change, hopefully someone can edit this & make it right... Yours truly on trial, I testify I got to keep on running till the well run dry Yours truly on trial, I testify I got to keep on running till the well run dry Yours truly on trial, I testify I got to keep on running till the well run dry Yours truly on trial, I testify I got to keep on running till the well run dry
