The Glorious Sons - My Blood Lyrics

Daddy's on the run from the IRS
He says "it runs in the family, think nothing less"
Says they're gonna have to dig him up when he's dead
I ain't givin' them bastards a penny back

It's Thanksgiving, what are we thankful for?
They put cuffs on your uncle, and they lock the door
Your cousin's took a trip to the hospital
She didn't know she was on fentanyl
No, she didn't know she was on fentanyl

I never needed a reason to let you down
You're running in my blood
We got a reputation in this town
You're running in my blood
I'll be there beside you when you hit the ground
You're running in my blood
I never needed a reason to let you down
You're running in my blood

Papa's walking 'round with the pain in his chest
He says "it runs in the family, think nothing less"
Smilin' at me through a cigarette
He says you ain't in pain if you don't look like it

Mama it's Christmas now, don't you cry
You're the only reason we're here tonight
Yeah, you're the only reason we're here tonight

I never needed a reason to let you down
You're running in my blood
We got a reputation in this town
You're running in my blood
I'll be there beside you when you hit the ground
You're running in my blood
I never needed a reason to let you down
You're running in my blood

Yeah, I'm nothing without you
Yeah, you're nothing without me

I never needed a reason to let you down
You're running in my blood
We got a reputation in this town
You're running in my blood
I'll be there beside you when you hit the ground
You're running in my blood
I never needed a reason to let you down
You're running in my blood

Yeah, I'm nothing without you
Yeah, you're nothing without me
