junior sisk - he died a rounder at 21 lyrics
[verse 1]
he drank whiskey for his liver
he smoke cigarettes for his lungs
he loved the women for his ego
he died a rounder at 21
he never worked down at the sawmill
he couldn’t stand that bright sunshine
he lived 21 years in his life
it was a thousand in his time
[verse 2]
it was a night when the blues had hit him
he must’ve drank three fists of rum
he got mad as h+ll when i told him
“you’ll never live past 21.”
well, if a man ever hit me hardеr
i don’t know where or when
hе picked me up off of the bar floor
he said, “i’d like to be your friend.”
[verse 3]
the other night i overheard him talking
to an old man at the bar
he said, “oh, daddy, i love you
i just don’t like where you are
tell mama to turn my light on
and turn down my feather bed
i’ll be 21 tomorrow.”
but tomorrow, he was dead
[verse 4]
there were 21 miles to the graveyard
and 21 roses red
this is the story of a rounder
who, at 21, he was dead
he drank whiskey for his liver
he smoked cigarettes for his lungs
he loved the women for his ego
he died a rounder at 21
he died a rounder at 21
he died a rounder at 21
