Bobby's Back

Well, come on Won't ya come on, man I hear that Bobby's back for me, upstate He learned his lesson, so they say Well, I guess we'll wait and see He's got a new Corvette he says It does a 120, he says He's got some catchin' up to do Some crazy scores to settle When I first heard Bobby's back The first thing that I though of Was how his cheap life up and left With some guy she just met I don't think that I knew again Man it sent a chill right through him The only thing he ever loved Just left with his life's paycheck Bobby's back Baby, for good this time All his life He was the last in line Bobby's back Baby, for good this time All my life He was a friend of mine Bobby's face looked pale and thin As if some ghost kept holding him When he asked my what was new I wasn't quite sure what to say How can everybody Stick their bloody fingers in my face? I almost cried and said me shut up Baby, 'cause I'd been used to Bobby's back Baby, for good this time All his life He was a losing kind Bobby's back Baby, for good this time All his life Never had peace of mind I shook him hard, said, '€œListen man You can't go back in time again'€ I never tell the day I die That I see tears fall down Bobby's eyes Four or five years had gone by When I read about how Bobbie died He smashed his car into a wall Messed up on drugs and alcohol Another brother met a stray Well, I'll be damned if I go that way Just say a little prayer for him He lived a life to just get away Bobby's back Baby, for good this time All his life He was the last in line Bobby's back Baby, for good this time Bobby's gone He was a friend of mine
