Line Of Blood

Well, it was said
On the day of my birth
The ghost of a dead man
Walked the earth
And my mama don't love me none
She hates everything my daddy done
He got killed on a steel mill line
Just like his daddy in a
Black coal mine

They say I'm the bastard son
Of one bad motherfuckin' line of blood

I got an uncle in a Jackson cell
Served 13 years
But he's still got 12
That's 25, baby
He killed his brother with a swingin' spade
Now he's six feet deep in a
Early grave
He got killed before his time
Just like his
Just like his daddy died

They say I'm the bastard son
Of one bad motherfuckin' line of blood

I can't catch a break
Cause if I make one damn mistake
They're gonna hang me, hey, hey, hey
Half Detroit would sell their soul
To see me swingin' from a gallows pole
For somethin'
Somethin' my daddy done
Come on

Yo, it was said
On the day of my birth
That the ghost of a dead man
Walked the earth
All right
And my mama don't love me none
Because she knows
I'm my daddy's son

He got killed on a steel mill line
Just like his daddy
Just like his daddy died

They say I'm the bastard son
Of one bad motherfuckin' line of blood
Yeah, yeah, yeah
