Letra da Música Jake The Slugger de Tim Steinfort

Jake found his bottle of whiskey again
and I guess we all know what that means
There'll be trouble tonight Jake will look for a fight
so you better get out of his way
Jake was a boxer who used to knock out his opponents
in the first round
And when he fought the best he was strong
he was fast almost twice the man he is today

But whiskey and cocaine ended it all
it became his daily routine
To be drunk to be high to be stoned
and deny his addiction to all of these drugs
A shot at the title was out of the question
he messed up his fighting career
Now he cleans up the mess
and he takes out the trash
for your everyday neighborhood thugs

Jake was a slugger who fought like no other
But fucked it all up drinking whiskey like water
And he went down the drain using lot's of cocaine
No the king won't return to the ring

No half the man that he once used to be Jake
has to stand on his own
Without love without friends no support
or defense everybody's afraid of old jake
When Jakey get's angry get out of the way
or you risk loosing all of your teeth
He's on whiskey and coke he's not in for a joke
you do not want to make that mistake

I remember old Jake from back in the days
Before he turned into the city's discrace
When Jake had to live with the loss of his son
The addictions began and the fighter was done

Sinds the death of his son he decided
to throw in the towel in to the ring
Without strength left to fight only anger inside
he tries to escape from the pain
Tonight he is looking for someone to blame
there's no doubt that there will be a fight
Don't you look in his eyes
or you will pay the price and than
you will be knocked out tonight
