Mr. Jones - The Mavericks[00:00:01]

Written by：Raul Malo[00:00:02]

I wanna go across the river[00:00:06]

To the house on oldway road[00:00:08]

Where my life began and ended all the same[00:00:11]

I remember chris and johnny[00:00:16]

Childhood friends of mine[00:00:19]

Who grew wise enough[00:00:21]

Learn to play the game[00:00:23]

As I walked up to the front yard[00:00:27]

There were children playing there[00:00:29]

And I thought someday this[00:00:32]

May be my home again[00:00:33]

But how soon I learned my lesson[00:00:37]

Through the windows they threw stones[00:00:40]

And said there's nothing[00:00:42]

Left inside Mr Jones[00:00:43]

I went next door to ask the neighbor[00:00:48]

If they knew what happened here[00:00:50]

To the place where all my memories remain[00:00:53]

As they recalled and tried to answer[00:00:57]

Tears rolled down their eyes[00:01:01]

But the best reply they had was made in vain[00:01:03]

Seems the folks that used to live there[00:01:08]

Worked hard for all their means[00:01:11]

But their means could never take them to an end[00:01:13]

There was hope down in the city[00:01:19]

Then a bank declined their loan[00:01:21]

Now there's nothing left inside Mr Jones[00:01:23]

Can't you see that it's empty now[00:01:29]

And no one really cares[00:01:32]

For even I must try to save my own[00:01:34]

You should turn around and get back on that[00:01:39]

Lonely oldway road[00:01:42]

'Cause there's nothing left inside Mr Jones[00:01:44]

Can't you see that it's empty now[00:02:30]

And no one really cares[00:02:33]

For even I must try to save my own[00:02:35]

You should turn around and get back on that[00:02:40]

Lonely oldway road[00:02:43]

'Cause there's nothing left inside Mr Jones[00:02:45]

Going back across the river[00:02:50]

To see if I can find[00:02:53]

The place where life can start and end all the same[00:02:55]

But no matter where I'm going it will dwell inside my bones[00:03:00]

That there's nothing left inside Mr Jones[00:03:05]

No there's nothing left inside Mr Jones[00:03:11]

No there's nothing left inside Mr Jones[00:03:16]
