What's Up With Your Brother? |
I’ve been fighting this guitar over 30 long years |
Until there’s blood on my hands and ringing in my ears |
Sing my songs round the world, one end to the other |
But all anyone ask is |
What’s Up With Your Brother? |
I catch rattlesnakes with my bare hands |
Sang jazz with Sun Ra, played in T-Bone Walker’s band |
I’ll debate time and space and the theory of numbers |
But all anyone asks is |
What’s Up With Your Brother? |
You can run, you can hide |
But you’ll soon discover |
No matter where you run |
Blood is thicker than water |
No one asks about our father, sister or mother |
All they ever ask is What’s Up With Your Brother? |
I could have money in my pockets or not a dime to my name |
Whether I’m drunk or sober, you know, it’s always the same |
Could be the cop on the beat, it might be some little lover |
All they ever ask is |
What’s Up With Your Brother? |
Now when the time comes to meet out final fate |
Could be in the fires of Hell, could be at the Pearly Gates |
But I don’t give a damn one way or another |
Cause all they’re gonna ask is |
What’s Up With Your Brother? |
Repeat chorus |
