Daly City Train Lyrics

He was an artist and a writer and a poet and a friend
In a man's life he will take a fall
But how low he goes well that just depends
He's shooting dope in the men's room
At the station Daly City train
Have you ever seen an angel well I know I have
You see they'll stay for a while and they fly away
Jackyl had a beer in his hand last time I seen him
When he rolled the dice you know he never thought twice
Never thought twice about being here
Jackyl had a beer in his hand last time I seen him
When he rolled the dice you know he never thought twice
Never thought twice about being here
Some grow up and some grow old
But what about the kid who never learned the rules
Spent all these years on this earth
When you look back it's just a flicker of time
Jackyl was one of the ones who perished
He was one of the ones who was already saved
Through all this evil and wreckage
He maintained a sense of himself
Jackyl had a beer in his hand last time I seen him
When he rolled the dice you know he never thought twice
Never thought twice about being here
Jackyl had a beer in his hand last time I seen him
When he rolled the dice you know he never thought twice
Never thought twice about being here
Solo:
Some men are in prison though they walk the streets at night
Other men who got the lockdown are free as a bird in flight...
Jackyl had a beer in his hand last time I seen him
When he rolled the dice you know he never thought twice
Never thought twice about being here
Jackyl had a beer in his hand last time I seen him
When he rolled the dice you know he never thought twice
Never thought twice about being here
