David
My friend David was a good kid He had my back I always knew he did He was different than most Maybe I was too
Hanging out with the in crowd just wasn't our thing There was a whole lot more that we could see on these plains Well some people just seem to get stuck and hang around It's college or trade school for those with the means There's never been any small towns with those in between Yeah the poor folks they go to work or they go to war I did fifteen hundred days in the corps And I got back nothing looked the same anymore I got on with the local police It just seemed to fit Things had changed
By then David had a daughter and a son And a rap sheet to prove all the time that he'd done He was just a burned out, beat down shell of my old friend And on a three day binge he was speeding through town And I bumped the wailers to try to slow him down Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com He didn't know it was me and he took off Oh how things change
I found his truck in the floodplain upside down It was a hell of a rain I don't know if he drowned Or if he died on impact, he must have rolled three times Yeah the only thing to make matters worse That his mom was a late night ER nurse He was DOA, she just about lost her mind
David's wife drops by every once in a while The childhood stories always make her smile But somehow we always go back to that day
When I found his truck in the floodplain upside down It was a hell of a rain I don't know if he drowned Or if he died on impact, he must have rolled three times Yeah the only thing to make matters worse That his mom was a late night ER nurse He was DOA, she just about lost her mind
