Lyrics
Jimmy died on his couch yesterday A friend of his ex wife called me to say He just gave it to God, slipped from the livin’ With the bills pilin’ up and a back that was givin’ in it’s been years since I’ve seen anyone Now I’m sittin’ here, in the dark Stallin’ out in my car Wishing I could bum a light From the ghost of the gang tonight Kathy lost a nephew under the wheels of a train A midday suicide after a losing streak He just stood on the tracks and gave it to glory I never called her, to say “I’m sorry my friend.” It’s been years, but I’m thinking about you And all of your tears And I’m sitting here in the dark Afraid to make a stupid call Wishing I could bum a light From the ghost of the gang tonight Tonight I’m gonna take that ride for the years we missed and the friends that died Sideswiped baby on the road somehow with a pack of dreams that just weren’t allowed Maybe you’re walking those halls all quiet and sad Or sitting in the dark all scared and mad Feel my hand reach across and don’t forget Where you come from baby, ‘cause there’s truth in it Yeah we huddled against the cold in those days By the light of a fire in a pep-rally haze With the smoke and lives past, and a reason for livin’ No matter how bad it got, we wouldn’t give in to it It’s been years, since I’ve seen anyone cry these tears now Sitting here in the dark, stalling out in my car Wishing I could bum a light From the ghost of the gang tonight
