Almond Grove |
Said goodbye to Miss Jenny, sleeping on a subway grate |
Say goodbye to all the ladies, waiting for the tricks to show |
Got a hundred dollars, more than I need to score |
Got a hundred dollars, just enough to get me home |
Yeah I’m going back home, to the cotton fields |
To the almond groves, to the old homestead |
See my Ma and Pa, my big brother Jack |
He went to Kandahar, but he never come back |
Came from Maricopa, had no family left |
Worked at Port of Oakland, fell in with the narco set |
Ended up a junkie, living in my brother’s car |
Don’t shed a tear for me, home ain’t so far |
No he never come back |
International boulevard, ladies don’t you weep and moan |
I’ve gone to a better place off the dirty streets |
Mr Patel, won’t you send my ashes home? |
Spread 'em in the old family almond grove |
Gonna see him now. |
