Love this song,, haven't heard it in ages, and I heard it this morning,, brings tears to my eyes when I do...
... thought it needed to be here..
FEED JAKE
Sung by: Pirates Of The Mississippi
I'm standing at the crossroads in life...
And I don't know which way to go...
You know you've got my heart, babe...
But my music's got my soul...
Let me play it one more time...
I'll tell the truth and make it rhyme...
And hope they understand me...
Now I lay me down to sleep...
I pray the Lord my soul to keep...
If I die before I wake... feed Jake...
He's been a good dog...
My best friend right through it all...
If I die before I wake...feed Jake...
Bums and hookers everywhere...
Wino passed out on the sidewalk...
Doesn't anybody care?
Some say he's worthless, just let him be...
I for one would have to disagree...
And so would their mommas...
Now I lay me down to sleep...
I pray the Lord my soul to keep...
And if I die before I wake...feed Jake...
He's been a good dog...
My best friend right through it all...
If I die before I wake...feed Jake...
Now, if you get an ear pierced...
Some will call you gay...
But if you drive a pickup...
They say, no, you must be straight...
What we are and what we ain't...
What we can and what we can't...
Doesn't really matter...
Now I lay me down to sleep...
I pray the Lord my soul to keep...
And if I die before I wake...feed Jake...
He's been a good dog...
My best friend right through it all...
If I die before I wake...feed Jake...
If I die before I wake...feed Jake...
If I die before I wake...feed Jake
