Ah! Sad things begin I could feel from within From the message from the message He had to give ’Bout a buddy of mine Running out of time Somebody past noon shot across the room And now the man no longer lives Too bad about him Too sad about him Don’t get me wrong the man is gone But it’s a wonder he lived this long Up in the city they called him Boss Jack But down home he was a alley cat Ah! didn’t care nothing about being black Oh! Billy Jack Can’t be no fun (can’t be no fun) To be shot shot with a hand gun Body sprawled out you without a doubt Running people out there on the floor oh oh oh Ah! Ah! Bad bloody bloody mess Shot all up in his chest One sided duel gun and a fool What a way to go Up in the city they called him Boss Jack But down home he was a alley cat Ah! Didn’t care nothin’ ’bout being Black Ah Oh Billy Jack Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah! Used chords: EADGBe C#m-----x44654 -----466444 F#m-----xx4675 Any comments post me at

À propos de la chanson

Cette chanson raconte l'histoire tragique d'un homme, connu sous le surnom de Boss Jack en ville, mais qui, dans son milieu, était simplement un chat d alley. Elle évoque les conséquences d'une vie marquée par la violence et l'irresponsabilité, avec une scène poignante où il est abattu. À travers ces événements, l'artiste souligne à quel point l'existence peut être précaire et peu célébrée, en phase avec la réalité crue de certains milieux sociaux. Il y a une tension entre l'image d'un homme ayant un certain statut et celle d'un individu qui ne se soucie guère des préjugés qui l'entourent.
