The Glorious Sons - My Blood lyrics

Daddy’s on the run from the IRS He says “it runs in the family, think nothing less” Says they’re gonna have to dig him up when he’s dead I ain’t givin’ them ba*tards a penny back It’s Thanksgiving, what are we thankful for? They put cuffs on your uncle, and they lock the door Your cousin’s took a trip to the hospital She didn’t know she was on fentanyl No, she didn’t know she was on fentanyl I never needed a reason to let you down You’re running in my blood We got a reputation in this town You’re running in my blood I’ll be there beside you when you hit the ground You’re running in my blood I never needed a reason to let you down You’re running in my blood Papa’s walking ’round with the pain in his chest He says “it runs in the family, think nothing less” Smilin’ at me through a cigarette He says you ain’t in pain if you don’t look like it Mama it’s Christmas now, don’t you cry You’re the only reason we’re here tonight Yeah, you’re the only reason we’re here tonight I never needed a reason to let you down You’re running in my blood We got a reputation in this town You’re running in my blood I’ll be there beside you when you hit the ground You’re running in my blood I never needed a reason to let you down You’re running in my blood Yeah, I’m nothing without you Yeah, you’re nothing without me I never needed a reason to let you down You’re running in my blood We got a reputation in this town You’re running in my blood I’ll be there beside you when you hit the ground You’re running in my blood I never needed a reason to let you down You’re running in my blood Yeah, I’m nothing without you Yeah, you’re nothing without me
