Sons Of Bill - Never Saw It Coming lyrics

Johnny lived alone, some said he drank himse; lf to d**h But drinkin' only started after years of cold neglect And they say that silence followed him like a k**er down his trail 'Til the day that they all screamed as he was looking down the barrel And you never saw it coming 'til it's all over the news And you're writing young girl's eulogies, and you're singing young men's blues And you never saw it coming 'til it's pointed in your eyes No, you never know what you will do, or know the reason why And the kids all went to school, just like any other day But only Frank and Johnny knew some wouldn't walk away And after 16 years of getting kicked and laughed at in the gym I guess sooner or later it just got the best of them And you never saw it coming, 'til it's wrapped around the wrist Of a pretty little girl who never got to her first kiss And you never saw it coming 'til it's pointed in your eyes No, you never know what you will do 'til you're about to die Bridge And it's times like this remind you that the world ain't what you thought And blood and dust and Nixon all conspire in parking lots And it all could have been different And when all is said and done You could have been the one who took the bullet, could have been the one that held the gun And you never saw it coming 'til it's all over the news And you're writing young girl's eulogies and you're singing young men's blues And you never saw it comimg No matter where it is 'cause we never saw it coming, never thought it'd end like this (Sammy on guitar!)
