Cracker - Almond Grove lyrics

Said goodbye to Miss Jenny, sleeping on a subway grate Say goodbye to all the ladies, waiting for the tricks to show Got a hundred dollars, more than I need to score Got a hundred dollars, just enough to get me home [CHORUS:] Yeah I'm going back home, to the cotton fields To the almond groves, to the old homestead See my Ma and Pa, mighty brother Jack He went to Kandahar, but he never come back Came from Maricopa, had no family left Working for Evoclin, fell in with the narco set Ended up a junkie, living in my brother's car Don't shed a tear for me, home ain't so far [REPEAT CHORUS] No he never come back In a national boulevard, ladies don't you weep and moan I've gone to a better place off the dirty streets Mr Patel, won't you send my ashes home? Spread 'em in the old family almond grove [REPEAT CHORUS x2] Cut the scene now [?]
