San Quentin lyrics

Windy coastal California
Cradle me City of Angels
I know, I know it won't come easily
Return to the source of light indefinitely
Call a cab, 6 a.m
Do it just before I'm driving
Hold up, seat check, am I crazy
Greet him and release him from mental slavery
Walked the yellow line, penitentiary
Feeling off-shore wind come wink at me
Weeping like a waterfalls
To the call of the ocean
Grandfather, please bring me your medicine

I've come a long way to tell you this story
There's no turning back now
Angels come when you least expect 'em
I've seen some crazy dreams manifested

He said an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth
A life for a life, I give mine to you
He said an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth
A life for a life, I give mine to you

Hum-numbaway, away
Hum-numbaway, away
Way way way way way
I've washed away
Hum-numbaway, away
Hum-numbaway, away
Way way way way way
I've washed away

Sunrise flower San Francisco
Have you ever met an angel?
I know, I know only the half of it
One side of the story, now I cannot forget
Here we go, another chapter, one step closer
Needed some closure, cross a couple borders
Got into the mind of a tortured warrior
I'm not responsible for a dark east past
On a journey from the head to heart
Do you think you can last?
Well, maybe these are growing pains for such eloquence
Grandmother came and brought the evidence

I've come a long way to tell you this story
There's no turning back now
Angels come when you least expect them
I've seen some crazy dreams manifested

He said an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth
A life for a life, I give mine to you
He said an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth
A life for a life, I give mine to you
A life for a life, I give mine to you

Hum-numbaway, away
Hum-numbaway, away
Way way way way way
I've washed away
Hum-numbaway, away
Hum-numbaway, away
Way way way way way
I've washed away

I may be a stranger, but I come as a brother
We are not so different from one another
The man that you become and the child you are
Your anger is a strength, but it only goes so far

An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth
A life for a life, I give mine to you
He said an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth
A life for a life, I give mine to you
A life for a life, I give mine to you
