Bob Brozman Down The Road

Описание: Down the road mama down the road,
Tie up your dress and run down the road,
Your children are hardened they do not feel,
In that prison charnel they're bound to heal (twice)

When the mama got the news you know she went wild,
With excitement trying to protect her child,
They are hardened they do not feel,
In that prison charnel they're bound to heal

(Instrumental bridge)

Tommy King that made the attack,
And seems with a cutlass behind his back,
Apprehended immediatly,
And taken to the Royal Constabulary,

Tommy you should bite your fingernail,
You are well six months in the Royal Jail,
You don't even wait to see Carnival,
Nox they charge you habitual criminal

(chorus)

(bridge with scat singing, basically D7 D7 G6 G6 B7 B7 Em Em)

Nowhere in a British territory,
Can you commit violence so easily,
If they charge you with grand larceny,
The full penalty is ten years in custody,

I heard a voice calling from afar,
Son you did not listen to your mother,
Don't cry it's too late to realize,
In that Royal Jail you will be penalized;

(chorus)

Mama got the news and she took it to heart,
From us she suddenly did depart,
Her actions were true, she was as good as gold,
But her children they run her out of this world.

(chorus).
