danno simpson - pearly gates lyrics
[verse 1]
my old man, he was old and grey
when he passed last year in may
with a jar in his hand of that old moonshine
they said he drank himself away
my poor mama got a little bit older
when her wild man went and died
put him in the ground, six feet deep down
with a jar of his rocket ride
[chorus]
this one’s for you
my dear old friend
we’ll raise a glass and toast the dead
and if you find yourself
at them pearly gates
you oughta lie through your t++th
and i’ll seal your fate
[verse 2]
and i’d known jimmy his whole d+mn life
till the day he made his way
two bullets in the heart, tryna do his part
in the heist of a city bank
jimmy had a wife and a couple of boys
and they sure do miss him so
he had a real nice life till he did some time
and he couldn’t find work no more
[chorus]
this one’s for you
my dear old friend
we’ll raise a glass and toast the dead
and if you find yourself
at them pearly gates
you oughta lie through your t++th
and i’ll seal your fate
[instrumental bridge]
[verse 3]
and i had a woman with her eyes so green
and her hair like a summer sun
and i was hers, and she was mine
till all was said and done
i heard from a buddy that she overdosed
on a mean ol’ crystal meth
and ruined that smile that i loved so much
how it hurts to know she’s dead
[chorus]
this one’s for you
my dear old friend
we’ll raise a glass and toast the dead
and if you find yourself
at them pearly gates
you oughta lie through your t++th
and i’ll seal your fate
[outro]
you oughta lie through your t++th
and i’ll seal your fate
