Jah Didn't Kill Johnny
Album: A Healthy Distrust (Sage Francis)

Jah didn't kill johnny
he had a date with death
it was a slow train coming
and we've all got a train to catch
but lord, take your filthy claws off the rest of my friends.
that is, of course, if they ain't already dead.
I make no demands. I just made amends.
I made my bed and I'mma lie in it
but before I die...please...don't take any more of my friends
please don't take any more of my friends.
life is easy.
the smoke didn't kill Johnny. the drink didn't kill Johnny.
the junk didn't kill Johnny. and the women didn't kill Johnny.
was it the road? i don't know.
was it rock and roll? i don't think so.
but God. God. God...would never...kill...Johnny Cash.
he had a train to catch
he had a date with death
and we've all got a train to catch
life is easy. holler at ya boy. life is easy.


The above is dedicated to my brothers and friends that never came back, the ones that never came back all the way, and especially the ones who have to go back. Al, Fat Jack, Chris, Gaylord (teehee), Mark, Russ, Chief, Capt. B...keep your fucking heads down and don't be heroes. I have lost enough.
