Reggae Cowboys Jed Lyrics

Jed Lyrics

Jed is an angry man

Law and order dont mean a damn

Life is cheap.
His temper is quick

Dont take much to make him flip

Life was hard
without a Dad

Mama tried hard but the hood was bad

Thought he was
cool, drop out of school

Started running around with the fools



Chorus



Doing the stick up

Shooting the shit up

Lets
just say Jed is a screw up

His mind is made up

Better wake up

Or it might be life in the lock up



Jed is crazy. Jed is vile

His code name is Suicide

Before he was 16, still a child

His rap
sheet was as long as a mile

You could say hes got Masters in Crime

His face is heading for prime time

Hell get the part, he had an early
start

Oh how hes breaking Mamas heart



Chorus (two times)



One cold night, it all went wrong

Far from the hood on the
outskirts of town

Pulled a stickup, he held the gun

A shot rang
out, a man went down



Chorus (two times)



Jed will be
gone for years

Confirming all his Mamas fears

The verdict was
reached. The sentence was read

Jed stood up and hung his head

No
change for reform. He traded his freedom

Oh thats the life that he led

To the devil he sold his soul

Life without parole



La----a----Life without parole

La----a----Life without parole

(Repeat)
