lyrics

Driving up and down I-95
Doing what I do to stay alive
Boss man tells me where I got to be
He knows I ain’t never been caught by the police
You say that you need it in ten hours time
The way I roll, I’ll get it in nine

Give me that package tell me where to go
Don’t tell me what’s in it, I don’t wanna know
I’m here to make money ain’t here to make friends
So give me the goods and let me spin
I head out and make the drop real quick
Everybody knows that I ain’t a snitch

Copper, copper, copper don’t you hit the lights
You don’t need this trouble tonight
Cause I ain’t goin’ peacefully
You ain’t ever met the likes of me
I keep my cool he pulls right past
I wasn’t built for speed, but I’m built to last

I got a little woman and she keeps me warm
From the late night till the early morn
She don’t ask and I don’t tell
That suits our relationship well
I know I wasn’t born an honest man
But my baby, she understands
I ain’t bad, and I ain’t mean
I do what I do to get the green

Jeremy Joyce New Orleans, Louisiana

New Orleans couldn’t offer a more appropriate musical backdrop for Jeremy Joyce, whose genre-defying songs are born out of Jeremy’s macro-level interest in music history and his micro-level interest in what makes songs tick.
