Keep The Wolves Away
took my first breath where the muddy brazos spills into the gulf of mexico where the skylines covered my chemical plants that put bread on the table of a workin man well the workin man does his best to provide safety and shelter for kids and a wife given a little of his soul everyday makin overtime to keep the wolves away
well i was ly thirteen when the company man tried to dig my daddy's grave it happened on a french owned tanker ship spillin' poison into galveston bay the liquid fire filled his lungs and his eyes Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com silenced, any s or cries cold and the grit, the damn stingin pain but he fought like hell to keep the wolves away.
for the next few years dad was sick as a dog but he made a recovery just to spite the odds. settlement came and we moved out of town where the sky isn't heavy with refinery clouds. yeah he's still alive he's doing good he's in his fifties but the money's runnin out and he's pinchin pennies so i'm going for broke with every song i play, cause now it's my turn to keep the wolves away.
