Mother gave birth to two
Died cause of number three
Left us a man insane hard to handle
So we waited for the early train
My brother stood up to me
Claimin' he's a self made man
Ready to go on a tail chase flow
Be back with the money can
He's been away 25 nights and days
Tell me now have you seen
A man with a young boy's face
Heading east, past the walnut trees
All rags and an easy laugh
And if you see him go
Tell him the crops've gone
I can't
I can't wait no more
He's been away 25 nights and days
He's been away 25 nights and days
My brother
No one bothers
For whom I would not hesitate to kill
Away outside in the night
Away outside is where he hides
Like you, boy, there's only one
Only one
He's been away 25 nights and days
He's been away 25 nights and days
He's been away 25 nights and days
My brother
No one bothers
For whom I would not hesitate to kill
Oh, my brother
No one bothers
