Lyrics. If you disagree with anything, I'd love to hear what you think! There are definitely some parts I can't figure out. Jimmy Sparks ran into bars and opened up his mouth Said some things to wounded men that they could not allow When it came to talking he was always on the run Everyone knew what the man had done Ohhh, they take you for a ride Jimmy believed in the American way A prison guard He worked hard To make a minimum wage He found his freedom like a man in a cage, oh no Jimmy loved Bonnie and he fathered a kid A baby boy but the mother had other reasons to live She left the baby with a note on the bed, oh no It was a struggle just to cover the rent His jail cut hours and now his little baby was sick He needed money and he needed it quick It was 3am Oh my love, oh my love Could you spare my blood Spare my blood Jim woke his son and buckled him in the car They drove an hour from town and found a gamblin hall The waitress baby sat the boy at the bar, oh no After an hour Jimmy doubled his cash He took his kid and his winnings as the dealers just laughed He said they will leave but may always come back that's a fact Out on the road they caught a stranger in the lights His thumb was up and the son asked if the man was alright Jim said you never give a hitch or a ride Cuz it's us or them It was 3am Oh my love, oh my love Could you spare my blood Spare my blood 20 years gone and now the boy is a man All Jimmy's habits got him mountains and mountains of debt And now the sharks are coming back to collect, ohhhhh They stripped the jewelry and the boots off Jim's feet They kicked him outta the car and said we'll give you a week 8 miles from home and only 18 degrees It was 3am Oh my love, oh my love Could you spare my blood Spare my blood Now Jimmy's son is trying to make his way home His graveyard shift had ended and it was starting to snow He sees an old man walking barefoot alone It was 3am His old man waved his hands with tears in his eyes But Jimmy's son just sped up and remembered daddy's advice Don't you no never give a hitch or a ride Cuz it's us or them Cuz it's me or him It was 3am 3am

@@abcdefghijklmnopqrstuv0 possibly but not sure how much sense that makes

Nightshade

They stripped the jewelry* and the boots of Jim’s feet. And after they kick him out of the car it’s “they say we’ll give you a week”

Definitely sounds right, thanks!

I think it’s “they will leave but they may always come back that’s a fact”
