The Jayhawks - Red Firecracker lyrics

His jaw crawd and tobacco dripped

Down his chin

His face settled on the neon lights

Reflected in

His face settled on the neon lights

Reflected in

Red firecracker, it don't explode

There's a picture in his mind passed down

And it feels like going home

Calculates all the cash he makes

At happy hour

Two bullet-holes took the best

Suit he owns

Two bullet-holes took the best

Suit he owns

Red firecracker, it don't explode

There's a picture in his mind passed down

And it feels like going home

Quick sand all around the man

Bad history

I suppose, there's a better way

To calm him down
