00:00Hey, man.
00:02I'm over at Mike's.
00:03Haven't seen you for a while.
00:04I miss you.
00:05So I'm just checking in.
00:06Trying to find you.
00:07I left you a message yesterday.
00:08You didn't call me back.
00:09I know Mom wants to see you.
00:11I'm not a collector.
00:12I am your brother.
00:13Give me a call.
00:15All right. I love you.
00:30Rail tire worker.
00:35I've been laying tires on coal on the ground.
00:39But I'm leaving this evening on the same tracks I laid down.
00:45There's some boys out in Jersey that are calling me out by a name.
00:51I got a reason to believe I ain't glory bound anyway.
00:56And if you're reading this letter, tell my mother and my brother that I love them.
01:08He's got the better blood of my old man and our cousins.
01:13But he made a bad deal with some boys out on Oak Island.
01:19And if he don't pay, they say they're bound to find him.
01:25But if I find him on that island first, the worst is yet to come.
01:37There's no blood in the mud I've raised and spent life on the road.
01:47And I went to Jay's tavern and it happens that the boys were there.
02:04Recognized his backside from the color of her mother's hair.
02:09And my brother found another way to make himself a decent little living.
02:15He turned around and found himself a lick and only blood could give.
02:21And I told him I was there to keep him clear of that island.
02:27He said, I love you Mickey, but I found out that I'm him.
02:32And I got bad blood with some blood out on Oak Island.
02:37And if he stays, I say I am bound to find him.
02:43But if I find him on that island first, the worst is yet to come.
02:56There's no blood in the mud we raised and spent life on the road.
03:06There's no blood in the mud we raised and spent time in the year' half.
