Floretta's Junkyard - Paul Metsa

I was working at Floretta's junkyard

She had a mustache and a rose tattoo

I was living in a shack in dogtown

With myoid man and his girlfriend, too

One day my old man ieft me

With a picture of mother with her only son

He said, I hope my blood don't run through your veins

He said, you know its better to fight than run

Fight not run

Well I did not mean to get kicked out of high school
Had to put some clothes upon my back
I was delivering the newspaper in the Windy city rain
In the morning with my blind dog Jack
And I ended up in a foxhole in Saigon
Just a teenager with a loaded gun
I said, you know I had to get out of the jungle alive
So you know I had to fight not run
I said, you know I had to fight not run
Fight not run
Fight not run
Fight not run

I got a mobile home in Milwaukee
And I'm married to my pride and joy
And I try to make peace with the world around me
And on my knee I got a bouncing baby boy
You got to fight when you love somebody
You got to fight when you believe in someone
You know you got to fight for the space to breathe in
I said, you know you got to fight not run
I said, you know you got to fight not run

Fight not run
Fight not run
Fight not run
Fight not run
