lyrics

I was
Brought up
In between

A cinder
And slab
Ya know what I mean?

They were my brothers
My haven, my sanctuary

But each bit the dust for
A trumped-up birth rite rivalry

'Fore we was
Knee high
Pop found the lord

Moved out
Crossed town
And got reborn

Traded us three boys
To get a brand new set of four

Laid down the ground work
For what would soon be a war

Pray for rain
Pray for rain

Pot shots
To and fro
Fanned the flames

What once was
An ember
Grew to blaze

Till tough words and hard rights
Begat knives and bar fights in vain

Then one died from each side
My eldest would soon fall the same

Never
Was one
For conflict

But forlorn
And seething
Did the trick

In red gauze with black eyes
Unplugged skattergun on my hip

Took a slow drive in no time
To the house where his oldest son lived

Pray for rain
Pray for rain
Pray for rain
Pray for rain
