My Blood Lyrics

by The Glorious Sons

[Verse 1]
Daddy's on the run from the IRS
He says "it runs in the family, think nothing less"
Says they're gonna have to dig him up when he's dead
I ain't givin' them bastards a penny back

[Verse 2]
It's Thanksgiving, what are we thankful for?
They put cuffs on your uncle, and they lock the door
Your cousin's took a trip to the hospital
She didn't know she was on fentanyl
No, she didn't know she was on fentanyl

[Chorus]
I never needed a reason to let you down
You're running in my blood
We got a reputation in this town
You're running in my blood
I'll be there beside you when you hit the ground
You're running in my blood
I never needed a reason to let you down
You're running in my blood

[Verse 3]
Papa's walking 'round with the pain in his chest
He says "it runs in the family, think nothing less"
Smilin' at me through a cigarette
He says you ain't in pain if you don't look like it

[Verse 4]
Mama it's Christmas now, don't you cry
You're the only reason we're here tonight
Yeah, you're the only reason we're here tonight

[Chorus]
I never needed a reason to let you down
You're running in my blood
We got a reputation in this town
You're running in my blood
I'll be there beside you when you hit the ground
You're running in my blood
I never needed a reason to let you down
You're running in my blood

[Bridge]
Yeah, I'm nothing without you
Yeah, you're nothing without me

[Chorus]
I never needed a reason to let you down
You're running in my blood
We got a reputation in this town
You're running in my blood
I'll be there beside you when you hit the ground
You're running in my blood
I never needed a reason to let you down
You're running in my blood

[Outro]
Yeah, I'm nothing without you
Yeah, you're nothing without me
