lyrics
VERSE
no matter what kinda life you´re living
or how you´ve been raised
all that counts is a number
god and the devil praise
I was born up yonder
highway 25
nothin but them pumpkin seeds
cared about my life
daddy died out in the fields
by the storm of '25
momma couldn´t make it anymore
without him by her side
my sweet darling left me
by the age of 25
I guess that's the number
haunting me for life
I went into a bar once
for a couple of ice cold brews
the lady behind the bar
only whispered "oh you!"
I tried my best behaviour
thought she'd been giving me sweet eyes
but as she came in closer
she said "you owe me 25..."
being solitary
a preacherman should help
"please give me redemption
from this numeric spell"
he ordered me to pray
to read it loud and wise
but the line he reffered to
was psalm 25
lying on the deathbed
god sat by my side
he took my cold hand
and asked if I´m allright
I say "what are you thinking?
I've been doomed my whole life!"
he said "I know, but I was mistaken
your number was a 29..."
no matter what kinda life you´re living
or how you´ve been raised
all that counts is a number
god and the devil praise
I was born up yonder
highway 25
nothin but them pumpkin seeds
cared about my life
daddy died out in the fields
by the storm of '25
momma couldn´t make it anymore
without him by her side
my sweet darling left me
by the age of 25
I guess that's the number
haunting me for life
I went into a bar once
for a couple of ice cold brews
the lady behind the bar
only whispered "oh you!"
I tried my best behaviour
thought she'd been giving me sweet eyes
but as she came in closer
she said "you owe me 25..."
being solitary
a preacherman should help
"please give me redemption
from this numeric spell"
he ordered me to pray
to read it loud and wise
but the line he reffered to
was psalm 25
lying on the deathbed
god sat by my side
he took my cold hand
and asked if I´m allright
I say "what are you thinking?
I've been doomed my whole life!"
he said "I know, but I was mistaken
your number was a 29..."

Second Coming of Heavy Chapter One - Geezer/Borracho
by Geezer/Borrachosupported by 6 fans who also own “25”
Are Geezer the heaviest heavy blues band out there? Probably, but if you’re unsure, just listen to these four songs and decide for yourself. And while your eyelids get heavy from all that smoke, Borracho have the cowbell to lead you home. This is a stoner rock goldmine, folks, so bet in the van whilst you can. We got nine more of these trips to go!
