They Took his Name
When he was young he couldn't breathe So they took his name They all adored his brother more So they took his name He tried to sing, he tried to sail But they took his name They he took a chance, he took a drink Cause they took his name
Round about midnight We'd hear him clumping down the hall Round about midnight He put a hole right through the wall
He got a girl, he got a knife Well they took his name He had it all, he had a ball But he had no name
Round about midnight Mama would lock us in our rooms Round about midnight We'd hear her giving him the boot
