Rancid Daly City Train lyrics

He was an artist and a writer
And a poet and a friend
In a man's life, he will take a fall
But how low he goes it just depends

He's shooting dope in the men's room
At the station, daily city train
Have you ever seen an angel well I know I have seen
They'll stay here for a while and then fly away

Jackal had a beer in his hand last time I seen him
But when he rolled the dice you know he never thought twice
Never thought twice about bein'

Jackal had a beer in his hand last time I seen him
But when he rolled the dice you know he never thought twice
Never thought twice about bein'

Some grow up and some grow old
But what about the kid who never learned the rules
Spent all these years on this earth
When you look back it's just a flicker of time

Jackal was one of the ones that perished
Yea he was one of the ones that was already saved
Through all this evil and wreckage yea

He maintained a sense of himself yea

Jackal had a beer in his hand last time I seen him
But when he rolled the dice you know he never thought twice
Never thought twice about bein'

Jackal had a beer in his hand last time I seen him
But when he rolled the dice you know he never thought twice
Never thought twice about bein'

Take it
Some men are in prison even though they walk the streets at night
Other men who got the lock down are free as a bird in flight
Hello boy how is it this isn't the any I know one way line I bet
This could not send him

Jackal had a beer in his hand last time I seen him
But when he rolled the dice you know he never thought twice
Never thought twice about bein'

Jackal had a beer in his hand last time I seen him
But when he rolled the dice you know he never thought twice
Never thought twice about bein'
