Lyrics:

I was born in chicago in 1941

I was born in chicago in 1941

Well My father told me

Son you had better get a gun



Well my first friend went down when I was 17 years old

Well my first friend went down when I was 17 years old

Well there's one thing I can say 'bout that boy

He got bold





Well my second friend went down when i was 21 years of age

Well my second friend went down when i was 21 years of age

Well there is one thing i can say about that boy

He got dead





Well my rules are alright if there's someone left to play the game

Well my rules are alright if there's someone left to play the game

All my friends are going

and things just don't seem the same

Oh things just don't seem the same baby
