On A Bet Lyrics - Jerry Leger

I see you waving it goodbye 

But your best friend won't be there to testify 

Son, don't bend 

Son, don't cry 

When I know you'll meet again 

I''ve seen it take away my love 

I've seen it shoot and kill my only brother 

But you don't mind 

Even when you hear 

But I'll bet that you would care 

If someone took your life on a bet 

Your mother went and died in the way 

Sally won't survive even if you prey 

Let's talk about your troubled path 

Down the street 

Where the people creek and crack 

I see your smile beneath that mask 

And I know it would break your heart 

If things should end 

If someone took your life on a bet 

Your mother went and died in the way 

Sally won't come back 

No matter what you say 

I know that something may go wrong 

When I'm at the window just staring 

A life can be changed 

Although the past can't be erased 

It's all you seem to think about 

I see you waving it goodbye 

Your best friend wont be there to testify 

Son, don't bend 

Son, don't cry 

When I know that someone took your life on a bet 

Your mother went and died in the way 

Sally won't come back
